Profile Chat Error
My Profile Chat has not been able to load for about a week now...i do not have multiple windows or tabs opened with my profile on, i tried clearing my cache, restarting my computer, logging out and logging back in. Nothing seems to work. The Profile chat is constantly saying "username already taken". I never logged on FFR with any other computer as well nor did i tell anyone my password. So what is wrong? X_X
Thank you. |

Re: Profile Chat Error
I can't seem to get on either it keeps saying "register your name so you can type" and I do that and it won't do it. Because all I do is have to sign on and I can chat but it isn't letting me. I'v tried logging on and logging out WTF is going on!?!?!?!

Re: Profile Chat Error
I can get on fine?
If you've got an alt account, try connecting to profile chat with that.

Re: Profile Chat Error
I've seen this before. I'm not sure how to fix it, but try clearing your cookies/cache, and restart your internet browser. Should work.

Re: Profile Chat Error
No, I have been told by multiple people (mods, admins) that this error isn't one in which the user can do something to resolve it.
The admins need to reset the chat in order to help the people who are "locked out." I PM'd Tass about it two days ago, and he replied stating he didn't know what caused it, and the admins reset the chat every few days. I've been locked out for about a week now, and it's the third time it's happened to me. Pretty annoying, if you ask me. |: EDIT: Also, yes, connecting with an alternate account will work, but most people do not know who you are there etcetc. I haven't been able to notice anything in particular that causes this to happen, but I have noticed that it could be working fine one second, then I refreshed or went to another profile, then got the error. What happened this time is that I got randomly disconnected and got the error again. It's only this computer and this username. Never happened on any other, but it could be that I use this one 24/7 practically, so I don't know. But I hope this error gets successfully resolved and that the admins find a sufficient method to prevent further occurrences.

Re: Profile Chat Error
Yes. I think a reset is long overdue.

Re: Profile Chat Error
Mine says you've been banned, but it's said it for quite some time now, could a mod tell me how much is longer? Or is this a glitch...

Re: Profile Chat Error
You were banned? I'm talking about me, personally, I don't remember why, but I think I was banned for something having to do with the "Kyle's Mom is a *****" song, I was singing it, while evading the censor, but I think a month is enough, D:

Re: Profile Chat Error
At least from what I can tell, this happens when you're jumping from profile to profile very quickly, like you catch the profile chat in mid-load and it throws it off. That's what I was doing the last time it locked me out. So what I would do is try to remember to always let the chat completely load before navigating away from any profile.
I don't know what goes into a chat reset, but I really think this should be done on a schedule, nightly if possible. For every user that complains that they can't get in, I must think that there are ten that don't say anything.

Re: Profile Chat Error
Blah I agree with Chaz.
Mine has been like this for almost two weeks now. |

Re: Profile Chat Error
2 weeks Doug? Pft, more like 5 days.
And +1 to Chaz's idea. Good thing I surf profiles with one tab and keep profile chat always open in another, probably why I haven't gotten this error. ;P /Knocks on wood. D;

Re: Profile Chat Error
Exactly what I do. Except when I play FFR I have to close out. That's just my PC though.
