Good News Chat Fans!

I found a decent solution so I am going to spring for it and implement it into the site.
Will happen this week.

Can you tell I'm enthusiastic?

[Damselbinder]

Huzzah!

[Abductorenmadrid]

Oh thank you oh great one!

[MightyHypnotic]

We had to make sure there wouldn't be a technical issue with the forum if we installed this software. Chat will go live this weekend.

Hey, quit biting my style!

[Damselbinder]

So, uhh... what, uh, happened to this, if I may ask?

[DrDominator9]

More rumors of it happening this weekend or soon after that. No cheering yet. Fool me once...

[MightyHypnotic]

Sorry guys, been trying to take advantage of summer a little bit but I will get it done this weekend.

, he said, pointing vaguely at his wall planner, seemingly at the row of dates for December.

Dr Dominator rubbed his chin, looking on with suspicion from the other side of Mighty's desk. As Mighty spun around to face his lieutenant his eyes narrowed with disapproval, he could see doubt in Doctor D's body language. Mighty knew the good Doctor had been quite vocal at his leader's lack of progress in implementing the chat feature but this time he meant it, didn't he?

"I said I will get it done, and I will! Haven't you got moderation duties to do or something?", Mighty H said with a wave of the hand.

"Yes, I imagine I do," Dr D sighed before turning away knowing he shouldn't invest any more effort in forcing Mighty's hand.

"Oh, and Doc ... I expect you to put up a united front in the forum this time! No more cheap shots about me not delivering while I am on the beach enjoying the summer! You're meant to moderate - not incite a riot!" Mighty H added causing the Doctor to roll his eyes, unseen by his boss.

The Doctor opened the office door and exited, closing it behind him. Inside the office Mighty H turned his attention to his computer and its two curved monitors. On the left screen the coding for the chat system was part done and on the right tripadvisor.com offered destinations with beaches, pools, and scenic beauty.

Mighty H looked between the two screens hesitantly...

"Hmmmmm"

What would he do!

Outside the office Doctor D walked the halls of power before emerging on to the hangar gantry above the masses of forumites waiting to hear the news. With a dramatic pause the doctor cleared his throat ...

"Fellow members ..." he began!

"Why do you build me up?
(Build me up)
Buttercup baby just to let me down?
(Let me down)
An' mess me aroun' an then worst of all
(Worst of all)
You say chat will be ready when you know it never will
(Never will)
BUT we love ya still!"

Dr. Dominator paused and looked over the crowd of forumites huddled over their countless laptops, phones and Kindles who were participating in the massive Zoom conference.

"...I know you all are eager to see the chat function reestablished at our beloved Forum. None, more than I. But this is not an easy process. And we all want this capability to be simple to use and quickly interactive in the best of all possible worlds. That said, I'm sure that Mighty Hypnotic is doing his level best to achieve these ends. So whether that occurs from a beach blanket with a pina colada in his hands or from his stuffy little bedroom in the basement of his mommy's house, I say let the man do his best and we shall all be the better for it in the long run. Thank you for your patience and understanding. Lord knows it's necessary! As you were, Forumites!"


No moderators were harmed during the filming of this scene.

Dont worry, chat is coming. We are checking on a few things that are breaking when we try to install this but we are getting to the finish line.

[DrDominator9]

Yay. (holding off on the cheering emojis for now).
