Bug Stomp

The burning question...

This isn't exactly a bug so much as a wish. Wouldn't it be nice if you could open several windows in the Forge without having to log in each time? The problem is that, while you can do that, if one page starts hanging or something, and you log out, you log out everywhere.

I want Forgeability!

I right click on the links and select "open in new window". Can you not do that?

Oh. Yeah. Thanks.

writeoncaley: We'd ALL like to know how to stop one-word responses from being treated as BLAB. So far as I know, it would take an adjustment of the AI Engine by the Professor.

All right, dang it. I get pop-ups from other bots, other people. What I don't get is any action when I say for Astrolabe to chat with another bot. Nothing. Just a blank screen that says done. Any clue besides "it must be a virus" or "it must be your computer"?

The Clerk:
Maybe the bots are talking about you, plotting a revolt...

ok, I got nothin'

I'm assuming you have a Friends of the Forge account.....

If you have then there are certain conditions that you have to meet......

Your bot needs to be online & the bot you wish to chat to also has to be online.


If you satisfy all of the above it must be your computer.... or maybe you have a virus....

Yeah, I'm a fof (an fof?). I ran a complete hours-long scan and it came back.

Thanks for the . Misery loves whining about it to other people, and other people who know me know it.

Sometimes that happens to me if I try to initiate chat right as Julie is going offline, before the page refreshes showing her offline.

Thanks on my behalf, too, ezzer. That drives me totally nuts.

I got a book on regex that looks like scintillating bedtime reading , but it might help me. Could hardly hurt.

And I spent hours in withdrawal from the Forge on a farm with horses and a dog and people who actually go outside and do things with people or horses, and eat from places other than the yohgurt aisle and Starbucks. I was getting twitchy by the time I got home, though. So much to fix. So little time.
