New Chat Room - *BETA*

[Jack]

Update 9/3/09 - If you're using Firefox 3.5 and can't get in, clear your browser cache (Tools/Options/Advanced/Network Tab/Clear Now) and that should get you in.
----

I'm testing out a new chat room for the The Jack Shack.  There are different channels that link up to the board categories (music babes, models, cum pics, etc.)  Play around with it and let me know what you think.  If you run into any problems, feel free to reply to this thread.

Please remember! The same rules apply in the chat-room as the board.  If I (or any of the mods) see any underage or personal (non-celeb) pics being posted...a ban will be in your near future.

If you're not logged into The Jack Shack board, you'll want to use the same user/pass as you would on the board.

Quick tip:  When posting images, it will give you the tags:

Code:

When you have a link to the picture you want to post, just sandwich it between the two tags.  So, it will look something like this:

Code:

[img]http://img.celebies.com/img/p/672/large/67207shakirasuperhiresfjc0_www.hqparadise.hu.jpg[/img]

If anyone asks me how to post pictures again, it proves that you didn't read this topic and I should ban you for being a complete moron.

Another note about images:  Most of the big image hosting sites are weird when it comes to hot-linking.  If you post a link and nothing shows up, it's not the chat-room's fault - blame the host.  My advice is to use a site like http://www.celebies.com.  When you find a picture you want to post, right-click on the image and view the properties to get the full link to the image.  In Firefox, just right-click the image and select "View Image" to get a full link to the image.

One thing I really like about this chat system is that it re-sizes UHQ images and let's the user expand it by clicking the image.

Each link to the picture must end with a picture extension (ex, .jpg).

There seems to be a 3 second delay from the time you click "Submit" to when the actual text/image displays on the screen.  I've been told this is to lesson the load on the server, but it can be altered, so just bear with me for right now.

Hey, everybody!  Jack's new chat room is incredible!  And he's not paying me to say it, either!  lol
Seriously, everyone should give it a look, at least.

I've been having some problems with the chat room tonight.  I can access it using IE8, but not Firefox (3.5).  I installed a mod to the board today that I'm pretty sure is the culprit - unfortunately (or fortunately) this mod that I installed should really help the search-engine ranking of the site, so I don't want to remove it.  Stay tuned...I'm trying my best to fix it.

I'm logged into the forum,but can't enter the chat,it tell me"invalid username"..

Hope the chat gets fixed. It was so much better than the old room

[Jack]

Still working on it.  There are clumps of hair on my computer desk from trying to get it operational again.

[Jack]

I'm able to get in using Firefox 3.0 in Linux...

Anyone able to get in using IE or FF?  Feedback is appreciated.

[JimmyMon]

Was just about to get in via IE 8 and FF 3.

[finley1]

with firefox, I log in to the chat and then get sent to the shack homepage

That's what happens to me too.  Are you running FF 3.5?  It's the latest version and seems to be the one that hates this room.  IE will probably work for you...

EDIT: Spoke too soon...people in the room now are using v3.5 and it's fine.  It must be a local pc thing?

I've tried and tried and tried to get those people to migrate over here.  I absolutely love chatting with some of the people on there, but with their limited picture posting capabilities and their room constantly crashing, it just becomes it a nightmare.  Definitely spread the word about the shack's chat-room to all your friends over there

I'll sticky the topic, but I'm only doing it to stop the bumping.  There is a graphic in the center of every page that says "THE JACK SHACK CHAT".  If they don't see that.......

lol i never noticed the link to the chatroom at the top jack, but thanks for going ahead and posting this thread at the top.

I've been laying the ban hammer down on users who prefer to use this room as a gay sex chat room.  This is just a word of caution to those who prefer to use the room as such.  

Although the bans I laid down tonight were only for a week, I have no problem permanently banning users who continue to use the room for gay cyber-sex.

...I reserve a special spot in ban-hell for those who offend this policy and have 0 posts.

Awesome chatroom!  Jack you're a genius!

Is there anyway to archive past chats?  I'm guessing no huh....

[mrjack34]

Is there a way to access member profile info from within the chat room?

Would be cool to be able to look at their profiles and see what they're into, and more importantly, what they're NOT into lol

[Demon]

Not that I know of, but you can easily look into the members directory of the forum. Just click on "Members" in the menu at the top and search for their username. Only problem is that most people don't give any info at all in their profile.

And no, no way to archive/save the chats either as far as I know.
