Oh, thanks!

Ill try to be there. 8)

um...
Feb 1st, 2004, 05:58pm
I'll be there, classing up the joint as usual. I'll probably enter the chat by 8:30, since I have pathetically little else to do on Wednesday night.

:? Missed it because I didn't read this thread... I was off illustrating hooks. Stupid :arr:.

Next time.

Damn you to Hell school!! :x

I'll be sick the next time :)

Clem
Feb 5th, 2004, 12:23pm
What a great chat!
Um...

It sure was. Sorry to hear about the threats against your life. Is it a fatwah, or just a garden-variety vendetta?

Oh, and BOE? The bartender has your keys.

:twisted:

Clem

um...
Feb 5th, 2004, 12:32pm
:? Missed it because I didn't read this thread... I was off illustrating hooks. Stupid :arr:.

Next time.

Those hooks allowed us to talk about you a little more freely than we would have if you'd been there, :twisted:. Yay :arr:.

You were missed, though. :(

(Not that Clem isn't good company, he's just a little less pretty. I've no idea what BOE looks like.)

Sorry to hear about the threats against your life. Is it a fatwah, or just a garden-variety vendetta?

Clem, I really don't know. Either way, I'm still going to start carrying a taser. :goofysca:

Hey, sorry about missing this, and not promoting, was out due to a family emergency. Next month I'll definitely give the event some publicity on the Homepage (as I intended to this month)...

WhiteKiboko
Feb 8th, 2004, 08:50pm
i think it would work better if you could see the status of the chat from the homepage.... otherwise, impromptu chats are nonexistant.... maybe they werent exactly plentiful, what do others think?

um...
Feb 8th, 2004, 08:51pm
I agree.

tonmo
Feb 8th, 2004, 09:09pm
Well, a couple things on that:

1) I tried, but I just couldn't make the "who's online" feature work on the homepage after literally hours of effort. I will revisit this at some point.

2) For scheduled chats, I do have a means to amply promote the feature on the homepage, just couldn't get to it this last time 'cause I was away. I do encourage anyone who wants to schedule their own chat to add it to the calendar, and see what happens. If you alert me to it, I'll be sure to give it proper promotion.

#2 doesn't fix the impromptu chat issue, but yeah, that's explained in #1. If I could, I would... I just need a stretch of time to focus on it. Sorry about the deficiency in the meanwhile... :oops:

I'll bump it up my priority list.

WhiteKiboko
Feb 8th, 2004, 09:10pm
Not a huge problem, just wanted to see if anyone thought somewhat along the same lines.....

Burstsovenergy24
Feb 8th, 2004, 09:11pm
Since practially nobody came last week, could we have another this week to make up for it? :heee:

um...
Feb 8th, 2004, 09:33pm
I will still be doing pathetically little else, every day this month. I'm game.

Burstsovenergy24
Feb 8th, 2004, 09:51pm
Cool. 8)

Any more people?

Still trying to get in to the chat room, was in there for about two seconds before then it kicked me out.

tonmo
Feb 9th, 2004, 10:53pm
Hmm.. might have to do with your browser settings. The chat room automatically refreshes itself every couple of seconds. When you say "it kicks you out", what is your exact experience? Error messages? Browser closes? Redirects?

What browser and OS are you using?

NickA5582
Feb 9th, 2004, 10:59pm
It says "Your session in the chat room has expired, to log back in click here" Then "to return to the forum, click here."
I've tried the first one but I just get the same screen over and over.

Have no idea, I'll ask my dad....

ant
Feb 9th, 2004, 11:03pm
I have no prob with it

tonmo
Feb 9th, 2004, 11:03pm
When you visit this site, do you visit www.tonmo.com, or tonmo.com? (The first is better).

Perhaps your browser isn't accepting cookies?

Good luck!

ant
Feb 9th, 2004, 11:04pm
Yeah what is your cookie setting to

ant
Feb 9th, 2004, 11:09pm
You can find that out by going to tools-internetoptions-privacy. from there you can ajust your cookie settiings IMO it should be set on medium.

ant
Feb 9th, 2004, 11:21pm
Did ja get it nickles

ant
Feb 9th, 2004, 11:24pm
does it kick you out right away or within a time

NickA5582
Feb 10th, 2004, 05:52pm
A few seconds after I enter it shows up, Nickles? :roll:

ant
Feb 10th, 2004, 05:58pm
hmmmmmm... did you try the cookie thin. What did your dad say?

Somehow, I think that with only 8 days away, I've missed a lot of chatting! Maybe after I've caught up with the :shock: 1300 posts on TONMO, I'll put a chat time on the calendar.

Melissa

I'll just have to hold my own then. At 1.33 pm sharp, first Thursday of every month, NZ time, 1:27 earlier than the arranged TONMO session.
Testing... :roll:

um...
Mar 3rd, 2004, 10:06pm
I'm all for that, :twisted:. However, my ISP, Cogeco, has decided to *$%# with my service tonight (the 'I' really stands for 'intermittent'). I have not been this angry for at least two years (:x * 6.02*10^23 doesn't even begin to describe this emotion). This was a bad day at work, and I was hoping to lift my spirits tonight. Apparently, I am meant to go through life sublimely frustrated. :D :D :D (That didn't help, I'm still homicidal.)

Melissa
Mar 3rd, 2004, 10:55pm
Sorry, um...

Next time we'll schedule it while you're on the more reliable server at work.

Purple screen?

This time I could actually get on ( :party: ) I could see the previous posts and stuff like that but there was no space to write my stuff. Probably because I've been half blinded by the evil eye doctors who put pupil enlarging drops in my eyes so they could see it better.
