No one in the Chat? You can help!

Postby Mithrandir » Sun May 08, 2005 4:46 pm

Upset that no one is in the chat? Me too. I'm not always absent, you know?!? I'll be sitting there waiting for someone to join, and they'll pop in for two seconds, then pop out. 3 people just did that IN A ROW!!! I typed "HI THERE!" but they were gone before they could read it. They just assumed I was idle. *sigh* Here's how YOU can make a difference.

When you login, you have to stay logged in for a few minutes, but if you do that, you can't do anything else, right? wrong!!! Here's the solution:

1. Click the chat link.
2. Click options, and click "Bip on new text."
3. Click "Play bip as a sound file."
4. Open an new window and continue your CAA happiness.

When another person logs onto the chat, you'll hear a "BIP" and you can go back to the chat window and chat with them. If you forget to set the BIP, then you may not notice when they login and start typing.

Yeah, the chat doesn't work for me. I'm pretty sure it's my stupid comp not liking Java (I even installed the newest JRE for the last chat - still didn't work).

Edit: When I scroll over the chat box, it says "load: class Chat not found"

That's a pretty good idea, though I don't know how it would work.

O.O

One of these days we're going to start requiring people to read the whole thread before posting.

Wow. What a great rule. it would CERTAINLY cut down on the spam in the post-yer-pic thread. Wow. I really like that rule. I bet I could code that in, too. So if you haven't at least displayed the text for the whole thread, it wouldn't let you post...

And then all the really long threads would die a gruesome, postless death. :shake:
Every year in Uganda, innumerable children simply. . . disappear. These children all stolen under the cover of darkness from their homes and impressed into the guerilla armies of the LRA [Lord's Resistance Army]. In the deserts of Uganda, they are forced to witness the mindless slaughter of other children until they themselves can do nothing but kill. Kill. These children, generally ranging from ages 5-12, are brainwashed into murdering in the name of the resistance and into stealing other children from their beds to suffer the same fate.

Because of this genocide of innocence, hundred and hundreds of children live every night sleeping in public places miles from their homes, because they know that if the do not-- they will disappear. They will become just another number in this genocide to which the international community has chosen to turn a blind eye. They will become, in affect, invisible-- Invisible Children.

But there are those who are trying to fight against this slaughter of Uganda's children. They fight to protect these "invisible children." Please, help them help a country full of children who know nothing by fear. Help save the innocence. For more information concerning how you can help and how you can get an incredible video about this horrific reality, visit the Invisible Children home page.

WD: You're probably using one of the clients that don't show the "type here" bar at the bottom of the chat window, aren't you? What OS/Browser are you using?
