new chat room screen
does anyone like the new chat screen format? I do not because when navigating within the Nation, the 2 little windows are on my bottom corner and seem to slow my computer down. When I am on the homepage, the chat screen is on the page itself, but is moved to the lower corner of the screen. Could also be my computer itself, but I never had any problems navigation through the nation as I do now. Unless there is a way I can remove the screens myself or Ben put the chat screen back the way it used to be, I will not be logging in that much. Sorry, but this was no improvement for me. ~Lonman

After giving it a few days, I've reverted it back to the old version of the chat. The new version just slowed the site down too much. Maybe if Ning can work out some of the bugs we can switch back someday.

Try this from your phone, see if it loads the new version:

The new chat looked like it was going to leap off the screen and attack me!
I'm glad it's gone...
I trust you dragged it out back behind the barn and fired two barrels of silver buckshot into it?
Chop its head off, stuff its mouth with garlic, bury it at the crossroads with a stake through its heart!
Else it'll come back to get us all...
