Thx Icedawg and the mods for bringing it back :bowdown:
Spirit x x x
:flyaway:
:c
I am dissapointed.
omg
its just... slow...and bloated... the colors/layout are just the opposite of good
its way too much crap
it makes my computer super slow when its running in the background
I just hope icedawg did not pay money for that :(
EDIT: oh and spirit there has been a chat since this was up... it was the IRC room... I hope you weren't sitting that whole time without knowing there was a chat already up and running :)
It looks unprofessional, the pling sounds are annoying (although they can be turned off) and ripped from AIM, the colour scheme sucks, and most of all, you are MONSTERS. INTERNET CULTURE MONSTERS.
Everyone knows IRC is the one and only true chat.
Nameless, you have been on IRC. More than once. And now you support this .. shit?
YOU DISAPPOINT ME.
Actually, he did pay money for that out of his own pocket for you guys.Quote:

I agree with Spirit and Burns I think its good.
I agree with potato sOOp, it's slow and bloated. It's trying way to hard to be MSN or something, with fancy rounded buttons, background design, sounds when you mouse over something, etc. I'd rather it be plain white with black text, and FAST. Maybe it's possible for there to be preferences, like you can select themes on the message board?
Yeah there are themes!
...The default one.
Well just play with it for a while y'all, it might grow on you.
Like burns said, ice paid for it, so keep that in mind.
As for comments, the admin can take constructive criticism, just give it some time. Then organise your thoughts then present them in a concise professional manner in feedback so adjustments can be made if possible or necessary.

I did know about the IRC chat-but my computer wouldn't let me onto it for some reason!
Anyway i like the new chat! :content:

* Probably not.
EDIT: It is only a program. I could think of better things to get into arguments over.
I think it is. Kekeke.
I'm not a big fan of chat rooms but this one looks pretty spiffy.
Just checked it out.
I agree. I like the chat but nothing can beat IRC.Quote:

Hmm. New chat.
It's slightly shiny.
It's slow.
It takes up FAR too much processing power.
It isn't anywhere near as fast as IRC.
The sounds are annoying, but can be turned off.
However, it seems that some people hate IRC (WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU!?) so I guess, for some, there is no other option.
My verdict... Bad. But there's no other option, for most of DV.
I like the chat, altough I think the color red should be removed; I find red sentences hard to read.
Chunky.
It's how I like my peanut butter.
...
Not my chat clients.
yah, like it's really great - all we need now are people to actually use it.
I kinda miss the old lame one... I hate going into chat and not being able to see what everyone was chatting about... I miss the smilies in there too. There are some good features with the new one, but it's just not the same. Too many changes, I get scared...
Besides, I really doubt it's the same for anyone if Joe can't make his proper exit.
Or if we can't use :hump:
Pervs.
wow its the worlds fuzziest violin!
All I know is it looks better than the older one. Turn off the sounds if they annoy you, and if it's "bloated" or "slow" maybe it's your computer. If ice paid good money for it, you shouldn't criticise it unless you're willing to provide something that's better and costs the same or less.
A chat is better than NO chat at all, too. Saying "it sucks" does nothing. If you guys can find a better bargain online, seriously, POST THE LINK cuz im pretty sure the staff will check it out and consider it.
pessimists, the lot of you! shame!
$5 :P But you're still right. "Are you making a difference or making a fuss?" - yes, that is a line from a song, but it still stands true (hint: the answer is a fuss). Shame the .fla source or whatever isn't available for it.Quote:

Most people don't notice it, maybe its because they're USED to their computers being bloated with all that spyware and stuff.
I dunno... you guys can use it without me, if you need me I'm in #dreamviews on irc.darkmyst.org
IRC totally kicks flaschat's ass
www.kaniaz.com/irc
do ittt.
errr, IRC doesn't work better for EVERYone
just use what works best for yourselves folks, instead of sayong 'one kick's another's ass' :roll:
Lol. sorry about that.
Today's a hyper day. That was just my opinion :content: :bigteeth:
IRC kicks FlashChat's ass.
Kekeke.
That was just to "annoy" you OB :X
that newspaper was really sorry too
I love the new chat. THe old one.. well, it was classic, but it crashed. Alot. For me anyways. And geez, I think I used that in 1995. Get with the times, people! And I like the sounds. You know when a new post is made, so when all is quiet, you can still surf the web, and when somebody posts, just go back to chat. Also, Seeker is paying for this. Live with it.
[11:09:35] <funnyperson> The internet was first thought of in 1960 should we stop using it
are you talking about IRC?
well its sorta the same thing with old appliances... they don't make 'em like they used to. Back in 1995, the computers sucked great ass, so they had to make a chat that the computers of the day could handle. Now in present day 2006 we've got about 12x the computing power, 1000x the internet bandwidth, super 1600x1200 resolutions with graphics cards that support anti-aliasing, real time raytracing, HDRI, and all these honky dory applications where more thought is put into making it look nice than there is into making it actually work good, its just all a load of bullcrap. The reason I support IRC is because it runs in the background of my computer without taking up hardly any extra processing power. As for FlashChat, well, when its open in the background, my processor's working at around 10 percent rather than just the 0-1 it normally runs at when doing idle internet stuff. And that makes my computer hotter. And that makes the fans run more. Making a lot of noise. Giving me a headache. And all that heat from the 8000 members at DV's computer will ultimately lead to the inevitable heat death of the universe, a little faster than it would have happened if there were no flash chat!!!!
hahah i never knew about the chat! Thanks!
I re-read this post 3 times until I figured out there was no word missing unintentionally; sweetshoes is talking about how FlashChat is great, rather than how it'll destroy the world (see MSG's chart), NOOOOOOOOO.Quote:
