News and Updates New Javascript and HTML5-based Chat Software Options
Posted on 2014-01-19

Yes, FINALLY!

We are pleased to announce the launch of TWO new, simple chat solutions that do not require any cumbersome browser plugins or scary security warning pop-ups.

The new default is the Javascript option. This version is hosted by the chat server, and should be the most reliable for most people.

The HTML5 option makes use of modern browsers, and fully supports devices like tablets and smartphones. It also does not require any plugins, but the connection may be less reliable. So for now it's marked "experimental".

Try them out and let us know on the forums if you're having any problems!

However, if for some reason you have a fondness for the old Java-based chat, that's still accessible from the "Chat Software" dropdown on the chat page marked as "Classic".
