Sounds like a different problem from the 'banned' problem.
Think I'll open a thread titled "The Banned of Brothers." Ole (And sisters, Thea.)

I've just spent an enjoyable hour chatting with Traveller, Texascavcadet, and Tarheel. William42 signed in briefly as well The chat room is working fine. I did notice that if you did not write something within a 10 minute period or so, it knocked you out, but all you have to is log in as if you checking the dispatch depot. Also there is a save feature which i will find very useful so no one loses critical information. A transcript of the chat will come up in a separate window allowing you to save what was said.

What if you came to chat and no one else showed up? That happened to me and I spend enough time talking to myself. Excuse me but the men in the white suits are asking me to put the restraint jacket on again.
I was having somewhat of a problem finding other people in the room as Gary mentioned, but I did pop in last night at about 10:00 or so and found a few other members there, however the chat was winding up because everybody had to be at work or school in the morning. Maybe, just a thought, Mike or another moderator could set a daily chat time, maybe in the evening, or for those with a different schedule maybe have a daytime and evening scheduled chat. If I knew I'd find someone there I'd definitely log in during that predetermined time. As it is now it's pretty much hit or miss, which is ok I guess. This is actually the first IM chat room I've participated in, so I'm not all that familiar with them.
I haven't been able to get into it all day today for the same reason 31 Jan
