instant chat takes priority

To give credit where credit is due Leigh was the first one to figure out the fix I just talk a lot so I helped spread the word.

Webs

InTransition,

I can't claim cleverness, EXCEPT I was clever enough to follow the instructions that Webs gave me in the chat window!

Derek: This fix is a HUGE improvement. I am not as clever as MMC and Leigh and never made the connection between the chatting and the tough time posting with the sound icon on. Was very frustrated. Posting id so easy now. Thanks!

Derek fixed the problem. The sound "feature" is now removed so you don't need to click on the little icon (because it is no longer there).

Thanks Derek!!! You da man!

Mike

Thanks to Webs for telling me how to fix this!!!!!

All you do is scroll up in the instant chat window until you see the little speaker icon. Click on the icon and it will mute it.

That will stop your PC from jumping out of text mode and seeming like it is hung when you are typing in forum or chat.

Don't know why it does it but it does. Easy enough to fix.

Yes the little blue icon speaker turns the sound off and on.
The instant chat will take priority there is a built in two second delay for security to prevent spammers or bots.

We will probably disable the sound as I see no point in it really until then we will listen for your feedback and make a decision. When the instant chat is on the same page as the forum it can be very slow. Muting seems to rectify it but not everyone will realize that so we may turn it of f by default in the end.


OK its gone unless a lot of people ask for it I am leaving it off
