Just wanted to say I joined in on the chat today and it was so nice to talk to everyone. I hope it stays up and we can chat some more.

it looks like it is going to stay up, it is a new version of the software. I'm sure we'll figure out how to abuse it an break it soon enough.

It was fun chatting with my virtual (and in 1 year real life) friends. Can't wait to chat again. :cutie:

BTW, Iron Man was really good.

I'm pretty sure we're 4 hours 'behind' GMT right now, because of Daylight Saving time. So I believe 7pm eastern would be 11pm in England. :)

I think my kiddos are taking me out for Mother's Day dinner tomorrow night, but if youse guys are still in chat when I get home, I'll be there. Of course, I'm probably going to sign in every time I sign on, just to see if anyone's there, so who knows when I get to talk with you again.

I just tried and it wouldn't let me log in. Maybe it will be open to us again soon.

I enjoyed chatting with you guys earlier today as well. :goodvibes

Hmm. I thought it was just telling me that because I was trying to log in from work and work had blocked it. I'll have to try again later.

I think it's shut back down. My guess is that Alex will open it up when there's someone there to moderate it.

The chat is not working, and is not tied to the boards, so no password in the world will get it to work for you at this time. When it was working, we all signed in as guests.
how come we have to log in as a guest?
It is not tied to the boards, is how it was explained to me. But since it's not working, you cannot log in at all.

There is a link near the top of the page (along with User CP, and Blog) which takes you to the chat rooms.(Chatrooms let you talk to other DISers in real time, rather than having to refresh a page to read new posts). Since the server switchover, the chat room has only been opened sporadically for special occasions...such as the best cruise giveaway in the world, and the other night for a brief celebration of our one year countdown until Podcast Cruise. Alex left the chat open for a while after the chat, and I mistakenly thought (along with a couple of others) that maybe it was open for good...but I was wrong. The chat is nonfunctioning unless it is specifically opened by one of the webmasters, which I imagine they will only do for special occasions.

Thanks for the explanation Mindy :goodvibes I have never been around when they had one of the special chats so it's all new to me. Hopefully I will get to be part of one someday.

Ok, i understand now.

But can these 'special chats' not be at midnight so i have to stay up to 4am for it to start?

Think about the time difference people! :goodvibes

The last one was at midnight just because it was the official one-year mark for the DIS Unplugged cruise.

There was an impromtu chat last night on a board that I think is not associated with the boards.. we just followed the link someone sent over.. It was a great room and no password or anything was needed. It started around 7:00 and was still going when I went to bed at 10:30

Here is the link we used: http://www.chatzy.com/263666951000

Well ...... count me in as another who missed the boat ...... :rotfl:

So ..... will there be a set time/date for these chats, or is it just potluck for us? Sounds like a GREAT way to talk to other DISers!!! Can't wait to join one! :surfweb:
