http://mibbit.com/?channel=%23flyert...irc.mibbit.net as an alternative
We're looking into it, thanks folks.

I'm thinking we should establish a permanent substitute to chat amongst ourselves.

There is literally no excuse for how many times FT chat fails & for how long (weeks/months) it takes IB to get it sorted - and given they're in the IBB bizness AND they own vBulletin, it's not like they're newbies to the technology.

How about we just chat on here instead?

Uhhh, we kind of did. http://mibbit.com/?channel=%23flyert...irc.mibbit.net

Chat no work, open this thread, click the link, voila!

It's been 20 days since chat went offline, and 19 days since the last word from IB.

I've come to not expect much from IB, especially when chat goes down, but this is pretty crazy. I don't know what kind of business would allow problems to continue for almost three weeks without any updates on the issue, or the steps they are taking to prevent this from happening in the future.

:td:

Sorry folks -- the chat issue has been sent upstream, directly to our Unix team. I see recent activity on the tech ticket for this but... I'll be darned if I can decipher what exactly is happening. They know, though, and rest assured it's an active troubleshooting.

Plenty of other chat rooms out there. Flyertalk doesn't have to maintain a chat room at all for that matter, it is just a basic app with some coded Flyertalk related stuff but it isn't anything complex.

They don't have to. However, they do. And they should maintain it. If you look to the beginning of this thread, you'll see that this is certainly not the first time that chat has gone down.

To be quite blunt (bolding above mine) - TOTAL BULL.

Why doesn't IB come clean & say it's not a priority & never will be one.

It's a month later & I still can't access it. Chat has had problems since IB has taken over & it takes forever to get them fixed. FTers mention it; IB serves up pablum & that's it. :td::td:

And to quote myself from almost 2 months ago:

There is literally no excuse for how many times FT chat fails & for how long (weeks/months) it takes IB to get it sorted - and given they're in the IBB bizness AND they own vBulletin, it's not like they're newbies to the technology.

Cheers.

Still not working. You can freely post on these forums though. :-)

Still not working so I guess it has been shut down for good till further notice.

Hi Ya'll,

Chat is down again indeed, but tech is working on it.

I'll let you know when it's back!
