I've seen a lot of people complaining that the chat is broken, but none seem to actually be telling me what happens. So, uh, could you tell me please? I think I have the connection issues worked out, mostly... (If you still have some, could you use ff.savagewolf.org/chat/?dd=1 and tell me why you disconnect).

Oh, and if you have freezing issues when someone spams, could you make sure the chat freezes for OTHER people instead of just you? Obviously if you spam the server will just disconnect you, it's only a problem if other people have troubles too.

I've not had any issues with the chat, other than that people are never in there because they think it's broken.

What happens (in this instance) is that using Firefox the chat doesn't load at all, just displaying the message entering box, the tick icon, and "Default room: main". But it works fine using Chrome.

In Firefox the dd=1 version thing doesn't even show the "Default room: main", by the way.

If you open the console with CTRL+SHIFT+K, does it display anything useful?

Among other certain irrelevant things, "ReferenceError: Promise is not defined" thrice, then "Authenticated OK; server version: 1, client version: 6"

Ah, I know what's causing that. If you are using Firefox, you have a really old version, just so you know.

Anyway, I was using a modern web technology thing, which isn't supported in old browsers and IE, and I've just added a library that implements it, so could you check if it works now.

I like to ignore the update dialogs on principle. The chat works now, such infallible timing.

... You should really update your system when you can. If only for the security things... It isn't like Skype where newer versions are universally crap.

It's fine for me in FF, too. Are you on the newest version, do you have any plugins that might affect the display, is it plugged in, have you tried turning it off and on again?

Weird, for me, everything works perfectly fine in Firefox.
