Goodbye IP.Chat, hello ArrowChat!

We're finalizing the moderation permissions and a tutorial for new users, but hoping to bring it live sooner than that!

NEW CHAT IS LIVE.

I will be implementing the tab version of the new chat this weekend, now that there isn't a URL conflict with the old IP.Chat. It will be back there again!

If you are looking for instructions on the new chat, please check out this resource: 

See you on the Chat!

There should be a (purple?) menu bar at the bottom of the page, with chat as an icon in the bottom right, next to the hide chat icon.

I can confirm this :D  I was looking for that chat icon and just thought it dissapeared, to realize it was only on my desktop!

 

I like the new chat for so far, it's really easy and it kinda looks like FB messenger-ish to me. Too bad the /me command dissapeared though but i'm pretty sure there are alot of other cool things i haven't discovered yet!

I miss being able to see who's in chat before jumping in, but I understand that it would be difficult to implement with the new 'multiple topics' system.

I am on my phone and chat works. My phone browser is opened to desktop and the mobile layout version, but yeah.. It shows up.

I can't see the new chat at all :( 

Did you scroll all the way down of the index page? If you're on android you should be able to get into chat as well.

I am using mobile AVEN on my Android (Samsung) phone through Chrome browser and it shows up just fine. I have posted this in several areas, including this thread.

When will the chat be ready for mobile users?

 

There is no set date, currently, for mobile support. Coleslaw briefly covers that in the OP of this thread, as to why it may not be available, now. However, some mobile users, such as myself, do have access to chat. Android support may be part of what is provided with the basic license. We are still trying to figure out how it is a thing, given the understanding we received originally of no mobile support.

Same deal (phone OS and browser) but I don't see it, even when requesting desktop version of the site. Oh well. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I'll stick to chatting at home for now.

I wonder if it has to do with version of Android or browser... *muses*

 

Edit: I just tested with my Samsung tablet and have no access, there. Interesting...

 

Btw, check out this thread in site info center for info we have about chat. It will likely be updated once more info is available.

I believe it does that if you've been idle for a while. Refreshing certainly can fix it, but did you try scrolling down after? I believe that should make it catch up. If you weren't idle (away for 5-10 minutes) or couldn't scroll at all, let staff know by posting in Site Comments!

Mobile with be available in a few months, through some folks are having luck getting on chat by going on AVEN through desktop mode on there phone. I'm not really sure how to do so as I've only entered chat on my laptop, but I know some have had luck.

For those who have android or Chrome supported devices you can access chat through this link:

http://asexuality.org/en/arrowchat/public/popout/?cid=3&ah=1

It should not work on some devices but some were able to open it since it was launched.

if it does not open on you device then it will probably be the supporter your device uses.

Link no longer works. I think mobiles use isn't supposed to be available.

When people did that time stamps showed :P while if you really entered or left there was no time stamp :D so the prank never worked on me :P. However I love the new emojis :D
