New Chat Software Instructions

I don't understand the new chat ... how do I find some directions on it? Are they posted somewhere?

What do you need help with Ananda?

Not saying I can enlighten you much, I have no directions either.

You can hide the new chat feature if you don't want it, and you can mute the sounds.

I think the whole idea of it is awesome.

I'm not sure what problems you're having Steely? You simply click on the blue/pink box on the bottom right of your screen and chat away.

I'll be more than happy to help if you need further instructions.

Like any new techno-software-stuff we learn by using...
cable box
cable remote
smartie phone
printer

...and new chat!

Maybe we can share some experiences that would validate some of our thoughts?
For me, I've experienced a limit to how much I can enter into a chat box, so I need to send and start a new box. I've had trouble editing and have lost an entry while doing so before I can send.

I do like the new chat, I realize the only way to embrace and learn is to use it; kinda like AA mettings!

Any technical questions should be posted here;

I didn't install the new program.

You know we all love you Opi....but our old habits....we don't want to learn new stuff. The old chat was easier than the new chat.
It will take time to figure it out

Thanks Opi, I'll click that little blue or pink box and give it ago. At one of my failed attempts I did notice that there is a limit to how many 'characters' you can use as breath says. Is that the case?

Yes Steely there does seem to be a limit.

I'm not sure anything can be done about it. I'm waiting for an update from our tech's.
