I used to be able to post in the chat room when it was in its happy blue format, but i can't anymore. I get the red face background and I can see the title "The Lounge" and I can see the word "add" and I can even see other people posting, but I can't see anything else and am unable to post.

I get the "your browser doesn't play well with activision" message so it's probably a fault at my end but I USED to be able to participate and now I can't and I believe that's disciminatory.

We don't like your kind 'round here. What the heck do y'all keep in them pouches, anyway? :cletus:

Could I persuade you to download the latest version of Flash (http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash), perhaps?

See I saw Warn's stuff, legs, but I didn't see yours.

And leviticus I CAN'T download the newest flash, it's a work computer.

Fine. You all have fun chatting to one another and making life long friends, don't you worry about me.

Try this, Roo: login to chat as normal, click on Options-Effects and check off the box which says all incoming text should be in the color you picked. Maybe it's just as simple as some colors sucking for you. If that fixes it, you can play with colors later.

Last time I did chat, it was nasty. Felt like I was drowning and trying to claw my way up, lol.

I can get this sentence to work, yes, cursor come back! Ack....frozen, help me, I'm melting, melting.

Naw, I don't even have an options/effects option come up. I think the problem is a little more deep-seeded than that. I thought there might have been some easy programming solution to allow for loser flash versions like mine to participate, but if not, it's aight, I'm sure I'll survive.

No she's talking to me. JD's had this petulant little inferiority complex thing going ever since she found out I technically outrank her as if I give a shit about that sort of inconsequential nonsense.

Yeah, but you're in the Australian military. It's not like it's a real military or anything. :wink:

Excuse much? I'm pretty sure it was you who began lording your rank over me and all but demanding to be addressed as Sir. :glare:

I'm sorry, roo. We in the service refer to your inability to participate in the upgraded chatroom "collateral damage". You might try going to the source (http://www.tufat.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=2821) of the chat software and digging up a solution that will work for you if you can't download the latest version of Flash, but I'm afraid you'll be disappointed. Sorry chum. :(
