A chat room has been installed and added to the webite. You may access the chat room by clicking here or by clicking on the last green button along the top row of options - labeled "chat".
This chat room will not be heavily moderated, although the forum moderators will have the option of kicking out users that cause trouble and accounts can be banned. I recommend that everyone registers a name (preferrably their own forum name). At this time, chat names can only be 10 characters long. In the future, I plan to incorporate the chat feature into the forum, so that you only have to log in once and it automatically uses your forum names in the chat room.
It may be necessary for you to change the color of your text. I think I have it fixed so that it defaults to white, but I haven't tested it yet. In any event, once you make changes (such as font color), that change is remembered and will remain the same the next time you log in. You may also need to select "Spy Chat" as your default chat room.
Also, when you register, it asks for (and requires) information that some of you may not want to give out. This mainly concerns giving a first and last name. At this time, I haven't altered that part of the registration (although I'm working on it right now). I don't care what you put in those fields, but (until I fix it) you won't be able to register without putting "something" in them.
This is something that I put together very quickly and I will probably continue to work on it for a while. If you have any suggestions, let me know.
