I love chatting,

The chatroom would be more filled if it didn't kick people out so easily for those that like to hang around in there all day.

Just a suggestion, I'd like to see people alot of people there as well..
 
So If you want to join this sorta gathering just say "I"

And maybe we can work out a time like eveyr other day of the week when you should check for members.
 
I know what you can do to get ppl in chatroom i also like to be there but it s empty everytime what u cna do is put this in your sig i will be putting in my sig first so u can follow lol

PLEASE DONT BE SHY - CHAT NOW
 
The chat requires Java plugin installed. No experienced people will install it.
 
Well its not just chat where java plugin is used there are hundreds of other used a lot of websites use it and its necessary to have it installed
 
I have also noticed that chat is usually empty these days.
I think people here want to buy and/or sell domains, but when I have been in chat people is just chating :-) and/or offering crap domains.
 
Care to explain?

Slow, possibly dangerous. I will not install on my computer which is managing property milions of dollars worth anything unnecessary. I do not feel to install java plugin as necessary for my business.
 
Same here. I also will not install java, flash or other stuff, including displaying some image types.

However, the short answer why chat is little used is many domainers simply do not like online chatting.

The few times I particpated in it long ago it was one reseller pushing a bad domain to another reseller, or crap about the weather or sports, etc.

somebody can help me ,i still need to know how to use it for chatting.
 
Java is relatively safe. There are varying degrees of applet safety - medium to high safety is default in many browser configurations. In addition, most chat applets have limited access to one's computer.

With that said, in light of DNForum being hacked, your concern may be warranted, but hacking a java applet requires some skill to do it without users getting warnings during applet loading.

With all that said, the main drawback of most any type of chat (java, flash, IRC, etc) is that conversation invariably turns to sports, sex, gossip, etc ... nothing wrong with that per se, but many come here to do business efficiently.

Current user in chat dont show on index... please fix it ASAP
 
Its Because ther arent any users in chat room i think lol
 
nah, i tested it there was three people in there but nobody was listed on the index that they were in there.
 
even with 10 people it shows no user on index page.

This is not about THIS ONE java applet beeing safe. This is about no installing Java plugin at all, because one day I might visit some page with scum java applet
