As something of a cell-phone-illiterate (it took me a while to understand the significance of 'brb' when it is signalled in a Chat Room, although I'd worked out 'btw' some time ago). please can The Great Gav list a handful of other useful chat room mnemonics (such as 'I desperately need to have a pee' or 'if I don't take the dog for its walk they'll be an accident' or 'Christ, I've just seen my landlord coming up the front garden path')?
going back to an old one. why does it still show me in a room when I have signed out. it doesn't really bother me but some people get upset when i don't reply even though i am not there. can you help me?
I've asked this one before, but for the user created chat rooms, in addition to the various pic type backgrounds, and rather than just the few solid color options, could we get a color palette instead? And another thing I would like to see is the ability to add a pic to the welcoming message, so that people coming into the always see it at the top along with the room name. For instance, if I wanted to open a room, and call it Adele's Playroom, and would like the sign in my av to display at the top of the page to anyone entering the room, is there a way to do that?
Also, is there anywhere that explains how the boot option in the ladies room is supposed to work? Because as long as I have been a member here, i have rarely actually seen a person get booted. Let me give you what I think are a few of the issues. If it is a simple majority needed, that number constantly changes due to people coming and going. if a person votes to lick someone from a room, then leaves, does their vote still count? It is hard to get people coming into the room after the fact to vote, as they may not know what the infraction was. I am not sure if there is a solution since the room is not static. Also, at one time, the person being voted out could see the message saying so and so has voted to lick you from the room. Unless that has been fixed, somewhere along the line, that changed, everyone BUT the person being voted out could see the messages. So, unless someone tells the person, they have no idea people don't want them there.
Why are pictures I. Chatroom so big?
