Yes, we'll be working to iron our these glitches over the coming days. The chat has been completely re-written, so the code's in much better order.


This is exciting

Chat update 27/01/2025 - report bugs here

FF Team:
As you may have seen in the general forum chat is currently offline while we make some back end updates to the code.

Due to the amount of work that's required for the the chat. We are making small updates.

As this is a back end update, the UI will not have changed, and the chat leaks have not been addressed yet, but this upload is the first step to resolving this issue.

As with all updates, we test as much as possible before uploading to the site, but some bugs may remain.

If you experience anything unusual / new bugs please add the details here so we can monitor everything in one place.

Thanks,

Hey so today (roughly an hour or an hour and a half ago) I noticed that I can’t see the chatrooms or interact with other users in the chat window. Is the chat down by any chance? It just shows an empty screen for both tabs.

I have not checked, but one of my friends mentioned having the same problem.

I can confirm that it's doing nothing, as of this evening, March 27th, '25. No channels/rooms, no user list, 0 available private message threads remaining, etc.

As if the entire backend is frozen, has crashed, or otherwise not running.

I can almost swear it's more leaky than before, but I don't know what triggers it, so it's hard to give context or more information.

I'm not talking about the leaks around reset which are well known and easy enough to avoid.

On 3 occasions I've seen it happen, many times in a row, not just one random message.

In every case, they appeared to be intended to be PMs. They always ended up one-sided, so it's not both sides of the conversation showing up.

At one point, perhaps the first time I saw this happen, I banned someone for 1 day, thinking it was deliberate and it went on for a good while, annoying the other users. Although the user didn't respond to any of my attempts to reach out and acknowledge it either. I think it was maybe deliberate but I'm not sure now.

The second and third times were acknowledged by the user. No bans needed, and in both cases it stopped, though I'm not sure what those users did. Maybe they reloaded the chat web page?

I'm sorry I don't have more information, or can provide any method through which this can be reproduced reliably.
