To chat in simply type into the white text box below the chat area and hit ENTER on your keyboard.

thanks kohai,i had found the text box,just didn't know where to click.let's play!

For future reference, 'How to chat' is just past the chessboard. (Ideally, there would be a link to take you directly to that section.)

thanks for your help artfizz.
