As you may have noticed, we've just implemented a much-requested chatroom. It is quite simple and has few fancy features, but for the moment we just want it to work!
Anyway, have at it, and post your thoughts, feature requests, effusive thanks to the tech team, etc., right here. Thanks!
Crashing

strange,,
well not like i would expect any thing to work as it should,,.. lol ,.. the chat room is showing hal r and sunshinedaydream on board but they are not showing to be logged in ,, and my name show twice in chat room ,,,....... strange days man ,, strange in deed ,,..
same as above
sunshine-daydream1951 ,, and hal R to be exact,, Where you two logged on at 4:00 am est. ? did`nt show logged in but in the chat room ,,....
just exactly perfect...
it's not! Just got a spectacular example of the mass exodus bug, only all the people bailing were Guests. Remains to be seen how that one's going to work out. But still, it kinda sorta works and it's good to have back.
Stuman, yes, this is one of the areas known to be a bit surreal. For those just joining us, if you enter a chat room and suddenly 50 people leave the room, IT IS NOT YOU! It is a weird software issue. We're looking into it. Thank you.
misbehavior
the system keeps keeping me out take me to the jailhouse
did`nt think was me
Hey Marye , no i did`nt think it was me , i was just posting what had happened,, that`s all ,, i`am used to the strange things by now ,lol,, after all this is The Dead Zone,,lol,,,,anything is posible ,,,
Well... let's see if this
Well... let's see if this works...
I've got to say I'm REALLY disappointed about the Dead's endorsement of Obama!!!

seems to have worked...
but you might get more discussion if you posted in the Campaign 2008 or Dead Head for Obama topic, where you will find many who share your view and many who do not! A noble Deadhead tradition...
kicked out?
I was just kicked out of chat room for misbehaving.What is that about?
At least let me misbehave before I get kicked out.
Maybe I was thinking about misbehaving.

I'm embarassed!
I just got kicked out of the chatroom for using the "a" word. The "a"word?! I was brought up on that word. Is it bad? Needless to say, I'm embarassed. Sorry to anyone that is offended by the word a**hole. I've read much worse in there. What are the rules?
thrown out
I was thrown out after I wrote the word cornsmoke and after that I was thrown out again with gratefulmom and buddy plant. Me bad.

before we were booted out
We were trying to get the guests to speak but they didn't, they just watched us talk.

ya know...
that's a very interesting data point, though who knows what's connected to what as far as all this misbehavior.
I'm with Bob, I'm starting to feel left out because I clearly haven't misbehaved enough.
Script error
booted out with this again.it happened when a lot of guests signed in at once.
Also i have been having problems with the lag that happened during the KPFA marathon

Chat Room Observation
I will add ... that allowing Guest to enter the chat room is odd because it would seem to me that you would want folks to register before granting access to the chat room. But then again, do you want folks registering and then not using dead.net.
I noticed that guests will appear and then after certain amount of time, the system does like a 'clean cycle', perhaps kicking folks that have been inactive for a certain time period. During this cycle, you will see your name as 'left the chat room' and then followed by 'has joined the chat room'.
Yippee
i got booted for misbehavin'
i said good afternoon to someone

Like they say
No good deed goes unpunished
Conversation is always more interesting than recitation, so speak your mind and not someone else's.

Welcome aboard and glad you are now part of the misbehaving crowd. I got thrown out again last night. 3 times for me now.

I still get kicked out of chat for misbehavin , but whatever..and i still can`t hear any tapers starting from the new year .. but hey still glad to be here .. Have a Grate Day !! And thank everyone else working to improve this place !!!
Got kicked out too
for the rude remark of asking whether anyone was there, and whether chat room was working-**********************************

what a tease
oh like it aint bad enough i can`t listen to tapers section, now i get teased with the Winterland listening party ... Ain`t no party for me..... I can`t hear it .....peace everyone...
What exactly constitutes "misbehaving"?
Can someone tell me specifically what transgressions I seem to be committing? Did I smile on a cloudy day? I know that they'll get it all worked out one day. I think it's grate that they are trying... Thank you whoever owns this site!!
you're probably not transgressing at all
something about the software seems to like messing with people. There's probably a Deadhead moral here, but...
Greetings
from the newest member of the misbehaver's club. I went to the room, and I was the only person listed. The two other names came up. So I posted "Oh boy! More names in the list." I guess that was too sarcastic for Mr. Server. He's one strict taskmaster!

think of it
as that Chinese place in SF that was a big tourist attraction solely because one of the waiters was a true artist at showering customers with abuse.
Or maybe as that Monty Python bit about insults.
Silly English Kanigits
Well, I went away, but when I came back it didn't taunt me a second time...

Re:think of it
I think the place you're referring to was called Sam Wo's. The waiter's name was Edsel Wong, and the 'chow fun' (a rice noodle dish) there was/is the best in the city. I haven't been there in a while though... I saw the place roasted on Conan's show when he was broadcasting from S.F. a few years ago...
Black Listed & Booted out!
Misbeahaving for saying Its the First Day of Spring!! Hells Bells!
Have a couple of questions
Sometimes when I enter the chat room, the type of the ongoing conversation is grey-very faint, and sometimes is black like here in the threads. Does anybody know why this is? Also people seem to be signed into chatroom who are not there-for example I logged out about an hour ago, logged back in-checked the chatroom, and am no showing as visiting there twice. Again anybody know why? And last question is that when I type a message when type is grey-is this visible to the others, as I can see my words in red, but nobody answers.**********************************

Grey Type Syndrome
I think that this happens when a certain amount of time has passed since anyone has posted anything new to the chat. It may also be a clue that there really isn't anyone else there, despite who's listed. Likewise, posts from other users appearing in black are probably relatively recent. Anything that you post should be able to be seen by anyone else who goes there. I believe that each user's posts appear in red only to them.

Ah HA
Just noticed that "misbehaving" also can mean being quiet for too long. Got kicked out twice when I went to the restroom-so must be some sort of timer thing.**********************************

ah what ?
I know the chat room was it`s strange querks, but wow i`ve been kicked out 8 times in like 20 minutes. I guise misbehavin is also saying good morning to everyone ... very strange place ....i hope it can be repaired soon, it would be nice to chat without getting the boot .. every two minutes .. Peace everyone !!!!
phew
the chatroom is becoming a bit of test of patience right now. Its just me and the dog for the next 3 weeks and its fun to keep an eye out for buddies in the chat room while working on reports and such. but
You get kicked if you do not post every 2 minutes or so (but cheeky experiments today show that you can cuss as much as you like :-)...(you know who you are ;-)...)
Also no one knows who is in the chatroom without going there so we all keep missing each other..but cannot stay in there without being booted.
Any chance of a 'who's in the chat room' list in the sidebar or even better a pop up window so we can chat and do other stuff too?
How that happens is way beyond my tech understanding so I have no idea if such things are feasible and practical. But if they are then it would be nice ...
time lag
i just had a 12 minute timelag
it was intersting answering posts and then waitin 12 minutes for them to appear.
it was fine one minute then someone logged on and bang
time lag

Badger has made some good wishes
second them. Has been kinda frustrating-some of us spent parts of last weekend having a conversation after the other guys were already offline-as we kept missing each other, due to slow posts, or the "in the chatroom" list not showing accurately who had actually already exited the chat room, or other such wacky things.**********************************
