Unofficial chat available

Cool beans.

Thanks so much twlltin!! 😀 😀

And Support for allowing this very worthwhile experiment/demonstration!! 😀 😀

Had several great conversations in this chat room yesterday, and with some who do not typically show up in the regular weekend chats! A key finding! Let's see how "established" this communications channel seems to becum over time...

Thanks again all!

hey thanks a lot! Much appreciated!

It appears that Support haven't set up the official chat schedule for this weekend yet. If they forget, the unofficial chat is still open. (But I would say that, wouldn't I? 🙂 )

PS. If you're on a Mac, I suggest Firefox rather than Safari for connecting to the chat server. Safari connects but then drops the connection after a few minutes.

Thanks, Twll.

Your alternate chat system works fine.

Best Regards,

Dave

It's giving me the error just now that says "maximum connection for that IP have been allotted.
So I'm assuming that's exactly what it means, that it is full.
Out of curiosity what is the max # currently allowed?
Also this has proven that we need a idle auto kick, there has been a idle user in there for a few days. that issue needs worked out.

Edit: i got in and apparently it was not full, then i got dropped and it took a few tries to get back in. So it would appear whatever the trouble was it was just on my end.

Maximum connection from that IP sounds like a problem in the server config…

Yes, it was 2 per IP, which would cause problems with the web client connections all coming from the same group of IP addresses.

As to idlers, that one is using an IRC client, not the web client. I'm not particularly bothered by that. Over two days of idling is excessive, though.

One of Mibbit's servers has gone bad. I've changed the chat web page to link directly to one of the working ones rather than to the pool.

Unofficial chat is still open.

Thanks a bunch, twlltin.

The unofficial chat room is nice to have during the week.

Best Regards,

Dave

Bump! Unofficial chat will continue to be open 24/7 until at least the middle of November. I'm considering making it permanent.

Thanks, again, twll.

I appreciate the effoit.

Cheers,

Dave

Bump!

A couple of commands that are useful:

/MUTE turns off the sounds
/NICK nickname sets a nickname if you've forgotten to do so

Unofficial Aneros Chat

It's possible to have a private chat with someone on this system too. If you're using the web interface, click on the person's name from the column on the right, and select "PM". That will open up a new tab for the private chat with that person.

To "whisper" you use the /notice command, like this

/notice twlltin What does your nickname mean?

It will appear to the recipient in a different colour on their screen.

Please note that anyone who is used to being a chatguest and effectively invisible on the official chat, will not have that luxury on the unofficial chat. We can see you and we will attempt to talk to you. Be warned.

Thanks again, twll, for setting up the room and taking the time to moderate the chat.

Thanks again, twll, for setting up the room and taking the time to moderate the chat.

^^^ That ^^^

cant seem to get in. i changed the nickname but what should i use for a pass word. everything i put in is rejected

helix (all lower case)

Great job, twll!

It would be nice if people remembered to name themselves before typing the password (helix). Otherwise, people who have handles in this forum show up as cryptic numbers.

Cheers,

Dave

Twll, I stopped by the site. It looks nice. No one was on at the time, but the setup and everything looks good. I'll be popping in from time to time to see if anyone is on. I do like the idea that I can come and go as I have the time. Being a student in school who works full time, I may only have a few minutes here or there to drop in, catch up, and check things out. I think this is a good opportunity to see how well a full time open session might work. I also agree that Aneros Support is very generous in allowing this chance as well. It is appreciated.

Incidentally, the official Aneros chat will be open from this afternoon (3pm EST/8pm GMT). It also appears to be extended over the US Thanksgiving weekend.

Whilst the unofficial chat remains open all the time, when Aneros's own chat is open you are more likely to find people in there.

Good to see you're keeping this chat alive.

Thanks again, twlltin!

Dave

Well, official chat is open from 3pm EST today until Monday. (Even with the Aneros front page having been hacked.)

I'm amazed you're still supporting this chat room.

Mucho thanks, twltin!

Dave

Yes, twll. Thanks a bunch for keeping the site up and running.

Brian

NB. Official chat will be open this afternoon (EST) until the early hours of Tuesday. Something must be happening on the other side of the Pond this weekend. 🙂

Yep, good old American Thanksgiving week.

twlltin;

Seems like your http://92.243.6.142/chat.html "Unofficial Aneros Chat" site is more reliable than the Aneros one. Kind of ironic.

Cheers,

Dave
