New Chatbox

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 @Worst Nightmare,

that's the amount of +1's the user has received, and doesn't have much of a purpose as far as I know aside from building up a user's reputation.
(In the future, I suggest you make a thread for any further questions; this thread is for reporting bugs about the new chatbox)

  Did you guys do something that made my text disappear ?  I have to change the color everytime i go there and so do the users ?

  Thank you for that I didn't realize it was a work in progress . I will not give it another thought .

I've had a few days to observe the chat box.
Here are some of the things I personally noticed.

-Chatbox moderators, whether they should be able to or not, have the add/remove moderation option when looking at the drop down menu from right clicking a name, including their own name. {It doesn't actually work. It simply makes the chat say "/unmod [name]}

-Not exactly sure how I would screenshot this. I seem to lag a great deal when using this chatbox. I guess it could be my computer and/or my browser. However, when the message box appears, I click 'Stop Script'. There is nothing noticeably different about the chatbox, but it runs completely fine without any lag. [this is when I have it open as ../chatbox, so I do not believe it is any other part of the site.]

Lastly, I noticed that people don't really disconnect at the time they're supposed to. I hope I'm saying this clearly. It's like nothing refreshes until someone sends a message, to where anyone that should have been disconnected is then disconnected. If the person that should be disconnected sends a message, the chatbox becomes strange, and the person is disconnected, logged back in, and then their message sends before they're logged back out once more.

Did they have archives on or off? Because the auto refesh is busted at the moment, you either have to refresh, use the archive button or post a message to refresh the chat, sometimes when this happens it will log you out then back in before the message
They are working fixing it.

This was told to me by: @JessicaFX

I believe they had archives off, though they said the same thing happened when they put archives on.

Thank you for the reply, I'll let them know it's being worked on.

Hey,

The auto-refresh button is still in progress ( based on the first post details ) so we can't know any more details. As soon as something is up you'll be informed!
