Please avoid using "TXT Messaging Shorthand" for words when posting on AboveTopSecret.com and AbovePolitics.com, such as "4" for the word
"for" or "u" for the word you. Common "Internet Slang" acronyms such as "LOL" and "ROFLMA" are acceptable, but should still be used
sparingly.
Actually it looks like we ARE allowed to say lol.
I neeed my chaaaaat.

The last time this happened was because Asala took the Amigos Shoes. We traced it back to her and once the negotiations concluded and the shoes were
returned chat started right back up. I am suspecting either Asala or Oni X X ultamately has something to do with chat being down. Oni has been a very
naughty girl after she got her third X

I've been told that this is WUK's fault. Apparently he robbed Springer's house, and stole all of his salad forks. Skeptic lost all of his tea cups,
and someone else said they lost all of their socks. So to calm the Wukky down, they shut chat down.

Tater tots indeed have their merit. But when too many of them get jammed in the ATS inner-workings, I tend to get suspicious.
Chat has been an interesting display of freeform psychodynamics the past few weeks, hasn't it?

this chat has had issues from the start
not being rude but it has been a pain to log into as most of us got 5 log in errors or more before it let us in
and now this
for something that cost almost $200
its not very reliable.
also i noticed when it connects its hosted on 123chat server?

Um...wow. Just wow. I don't know how to respond to this.
Dude. Chat's a free perk of the site. 200 posts, not bucks.
You must be withdrawing pretty hard over there.
I miss it too, but it's not the only way to communicate with other people here on ATS. Maybe this is a sign from above that the chat wasn't being
used for it's intended purpose?
It's a social perk - but it's also a social perk on a CONSPIRACY site.
Been a lot of flirtin' and psychobabble going on in there lately...
The Three Amigos have been more than gracious to provide a safe haven and alternative to "regular chats"....and it HAS kind of been slipping down
that slippery slope lately into a "well gee, I could log into yahoo or msn for this kind of thing".
Maybe it's a hint...?

The chat software costs $150 for a license. ATS has to pay that in order to obtain it's license, and likely more if it's not hosted on ATS itself.

like i said an hour and a half ago I'm in chat
and now someone else is here so there is two of us in chat
therefore chat is up
and once you hit the log in screen it takes a couple trys to get in
perseverance is the key
if there is a problem I'm sure there working on it

Unless my DNS is deceiving me, chat is not responding. It'll load the page, but not the client. Not sure how you're on TUP, but it's not working
for me or most everyone else.

I did not know there was a fee to run a chat server. Then again, I'm not too much the new school techie either.
Makes even more sense that they'd can it if it wasn't being used for it's intended purpose of real time conspiracy discussion.
But eh, I'm an old fart. What do I know.
(btw - feel free to contact me via my yahoo messenger link at anytime if you're bored. The button is at the bottom of my post here. You can even
have a laugh at me at my own expense. Just mention in your opening line you're from ATS.)
Wow. Alternatives. Amazing.

I've been trying to get in Penguin, but no luck here either. The client is timing out while trying to load. ping can't locate the DNS addy
either.
I miss chat...
