Dear members For few months, we had many problems with our current Chatbox. Many of you complained about the chatbox, that is perfectly normal! That's why, our technicians decided to rework all the chatbox! There is no big design change, just few improvements However, the code is not the same. It should solve all issues we had and you will enjoy chatting with your members Of course, the chatbox is still is under beta tests. So, we might have some bugs with the chatbox. It would be wonderful you could report those problems so that we can improve the chatbox as much as possible In addition, we have a new command  /help so that you will know all the chatbox commands You just have to enter /help or click on the following button: Then, a popup will appear with an explanation of the commands. Those commands depend on your status and permissions on the forum: Now you can chat Forumotion

We currently have a technical problem of very significant scalability CPU of the servers following an optimization of the chatbox to solve problems you reported on it for awhile. And to be honest, henceforth, the Chatbox uses the same technology as the notifications of the forum rather than sending constant requests.
This theoretically allows to considerably lighten the load and increase performance. We also have the opportunity to add a Help button that displays the commands in the chatbox to those who desire to know each according to their permissions.

We are working hard to find a viable technical solution to this rising burden though our local simulation were good, however, we are talking about millions of forums and only a full-scale test could allow us to make adjustments.

We are aware of the technical problems and inconveniences this causes. Nevertheless, you can imagine that if we could have done otherwise, we would have. We have a long night of work ahead of us, the pizzas are ordered and the coffeemaker is running at full speed so don't worry.

Certainly some malfunctions persist, but we're on it. Also, know that we are really far from the stage on these kinds of suggestions (why not give us the choice between such and such ... etc.) / Currently, the goal is to get you out a stable and functional chatbox.

In this sense, we need your support and that this topic remains clean without reports that set us on the wrong track.

Wait for the green light for the new patch to be released to give us your feedback. However, at present, there's no need to post to say that you too have the same problem because we already know and that only extends this unique topic for nothing

After stabilization server load will be ok which will solve a lot of problems that you are currently experiencing.

Thank you for your understanding and we apologize for the inconvenience

Hello dear members Here the improvement of bugs Remove the new color picker = solved Posts missing = solved Error in function write_msg().

As the AWC Chatbox came back up yet? I have checked their site but no update yet. I am going on the PC now to check

Thanks for FINALLY updating the chatbox, now we just need to get rid of that damn be cursed time out feature.


Everyone please try to remain calm, the volunteers do not deserve this havoc! P.S I am not trying to moderate anyone, just putting out a plea.
