The who's chatting for Live Chat is a difficult thing for the forum software to handle, since the actual chat server is seperate than the forum server and the forum software can't ask the chat server directly who's in there. The only thing it knows is that you click on the link to enter the room at a specific time.
From browsing the code, it appears that if you are in there over 2 hours, it assumes you probably left without telling it and drops you from the listing.
My only suggestion is, if you are in there and not listed in Who's Chatting, Exit chat and go back in.
FlashChat is exactly the opposite. The forum software can see at all times who is in there. It just has a hard time knowing you left if you don't use the logout function within FlashChat (so you're listed as being in there, when you're not).
um, hawk darlin' - if you can post, you're logged in. if you're logged in, you might try to click on the front page just above where it lists who is in the chatroom.
I couldn't log into chat a week or two ago and complained to paw about it. he kindly asked if I was logged in to the site.
If that doesn't work, I would email paw. He's great about stuff like that.
Have you given any thought to the weenie roast this year? If not, would you mind reminding us of the name of the place you'd suggested for the next one?

The chat listing, has it's problems. :(
More often than not, 2 or 3 folks are listed,
when there are actually 10 or so in the room.
What's up with that?? :unsure:

I just said hi, but there was no one there. Which is cool, cause I"m leaving in less than 10 minues. :)

hmmmm, I am not sure if this is true or not, but a "knowledgeable," try logging into the chatroom from the "top of the page" live chat feature.
I am going to try it now, to see.

I try that, and it's still deceiving.
Excie-part of the fun of going into chat and not seeing your name is finding you when I get in there (and others).
There are so few surprises left in life, doncha know. Gotta get them where you can.
