Some members requested it, so we added the AJAX chat room to our site. AJAX chat is an open-source project. You can read about it here. Currently the chat is available to all members (might change this in the future).
Click here to join the chat. Keep in mind that the chat is moderated by Mods and Admins.
The purpose of this feature is to allow you to talk easier with each-other and possibly establish some connections. It is not meant for offering support or reporting issues. And most important it should not keep you away from our forum. If a conversation inside the Live Chat seems interesting, please start a thread in the forums about the same subject. Content in the chat room disappears and it is not indexed by search engines, therefore it won't help our forum as much as a thread.
Known issues:
The chat works best in Firefox, Chrome, Internet Explorer and Opera users might encounter some issues. The project seems to be less supported by its author at the moment (latest version is from 2009 and the author doesn't reply to threads asking for help) so we might not be able to find a fix for certain issues.
Auto scroll in Chrome:
When the chat fills with messages the content will not auto-scroll properly. As a workaround you can limit the number of messages that can be displayed at a time:

When the chat fills with messages the content will not auto-scroll properly. As a workaround you can limit the number of messages that can be displayed at a time:
- click the settings button;
- Change the "Maximum number of messages in the chatlist" to a number that suites the height of you screen (for example 30);
- The change takes place immediately so all you have to to is close the settings window bi clicking the settings button again.
