Perry,
First, “hello”, long time no speak. It was great to see you and meet you at the convention.
now, on to your question:
As far as the chat room is concerned, what chat software are you using?
When I goto the chatroom, I have a window opened that has three panes.
the main frame is the actual chatroom, where the conversation appears, and the other frame on the right is where the list of “who” is in the room is listed alphabetically.
then, there is a frame on the bottom where I type what I am going to say, and can see it before I hit “send” or “Enter”.
Are you seeing the frame that has the list of people in it?
If I’m WAY off base, pardon me. I’m just trying to understand better what exactly you are seeing and what the problem might be.
Good luck, and let me know if this helps or not,
Jim IL

question *

When in the chat room and one sees that there are several people in another room, how is it one finds their way into the other room ?

Thanks, Perry

Hi Perry!

Hey, If you are using mIRC software to chat, you highlight the persons name you want to speak to privately and then right click your mouse on “Query”. That will bring up a separate window where only you and they talk privately.

If you are using the creonline page java chat page, I think you might have to look for the bubble that says “whisper”. Is that right, Dirk?

You can tell I use mirc. Its fairly simple once you get the hang of it.
