I would like to remind everyone that EM was good enough to create tabs in chat which allow multiple sessions. Feel free to use tabs other then lobby if you want to get technical, teach, or just shoot the breeze with a few others when the lobby is crowded.
3v0, the tabs don't work, you can only ever be in any ONE channel, you can't observe or partake in multiple channels. This is an inherent flaw of the chat software, that more than likley can't be fixed and probably shouldn't there are already better chat solutions out there.

The chat works fine when used for the intended purposes. The tabs are supposed to link you to a private channel where you can discuss something with another member without disturbing, or being disturbed by, other conversations. When used for that purpose, the tabs work great. It is much easier than opening private channels in the old chat!
DerStrom, speak for yourself, I can keep track of at least 2 conversations, sometimes three if it's not complicated, over at least 10 channels of observation. The IRC heralded this realm in YEARS ago. The chat here just isn't up to par with current IRC sophistication.

I was speaking for myself, and obviously I was speaking about the intentions for the tabs. If EM wanted to allow several conversations to happen at once, he would have made it work that way. If you have a problem with how it's set up, you don't need to log in. Nobody's forcing you to come onto chat. It's your choice whether to use it or not.
Scead, do you honestly think that EM doesn't know how to put a chat together? If he wanted to set it up the way you suggested, I have no doubt he'd be able to program it to do so. Your lack of faith disturbs me....
chat works great! free drinks are great! sleeping standing up is an aquired taste! PARTY PARTY PARTY!! ithe tabs are good for splitting off from the main conversation and are generaly used when someone is being helped etc. i would think in most cases no one (except scead of course) would want to be listening into another conversation. so when we meeting round Han's place??

there are some members who remind on political parties in Germany: Their signature must be something like: "Even if we agree we disagree with everything the ruling parties are planning."
Meeting at my place shouldn't be any problem.
I can get enough packs of rice straw that make fine beds - and there is plenty of room in the house (partially equipped with windows and doors). Rice straw is a lot softer than wheat straw.
If the house's room won't suffice we might alternatively use the desk type roof with a total area of 250 square meters. (Bamboo ladder is available - hammered together by my wife).
Just tell me in time when you intend to drop in to leave enough time to order a truck full of beer.
