chat thread (to avoid the roundabout way to get to notes)...

seems the new chat thing, which has caused so much upset, isn't going to be reversed.

having spent years complaining about all the extra clicks that came with v3, this is a huge blow...

Avatar of gambit-man

that might be handy for groups where i am SA, but no use whatsoever in the other groups...

The Chat room in the V2 group, though, is serving its purpose.. (in my estimation).  The problem is the placement of that in-front of Notes.  If this is an intermediary step, to get players used to using Chat for mindless drivel---as opposed to sticking it in the Notes---and they move Chat to the landing point of groups/clubs, then I think this will be an improvement.

Let's see how it pans out.

I belong to a lot of groups, and no one has expressed any support for this new bug/feature. Actually, the dislike has been universal.

Avatar of Spacebux

I can understand the dislike --- I too, do not care for Chat being mixed.  They should remain separate pages.  Chat for drivel.  Notes for pertinent group stuff from Admin.

Let's put it this way, no one thinks it is a really great idea, but I am still open to see what happens. I have checked out my own Clubs to read the comments, BTW, possibly the same as odyson.

Avatar of gambit-man

all those notes one finds in their groups, kids saying "hi", "can i be admin", "join my club" were irritating before, but they're even more irritating when it takes 3 clicks to get there...

anyone know how far off this update/fix is gonna be?

Avatar of camter

What happened was they changed it back. Wasn't a great idea really.

Just shows that if you wait, it may get fixed.

Avatar of gambit-man

great, shouldn't be long for the rest of the site to get fixed then...

Avatar of camter

Not much left to fix, is there?

Avatar of Spacebux

These ghost Alerts ... %!@!$#@!  ... makes me wonder if I'm missing a REAL alert for something else and the Alerts are just corrupted for something else ( bad pointer math, e.g. ).

Avatar of camter

So! Not much to fix, or otherwise, then.

Avatar of gambit-man

i get them too, i also get a number 1 (as if there was an alert) when actually there are none...

Avatar of Spacebux

@gambit-man -- my Alert numbers range all over... .  If I "Clear Alerts", the problem is resolved for ~2 days.  Then my ghost alerts return from whichever closet is most convenient for them.  🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

Im not getting ghost alerts that often, maybe clear your cache or something. I get those from time to time though. 

 

Another thing ... once I do get through all perceivable alerts, I still have '6' ghost alerts.  I mouse-over the green pawn icon, and it says "NO ALERTS".  I click another page... *boom* -- my 6 ghost alerts are back.   I don't even have a chance to "CLEAR ALERTS" because the system knows I don't have any.  But, it still alerts me to 6 alerts that are not there.

I just cleared my browser cache.  Reloaded the page.  No bueno.  Still sat with 6 ghost alerts.  🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

Avatar of Spacebux

Good suggestion though.  👍

Avatar of gambit-man

mine's is much the same, except it says 1 rather than 6
