Are chat rooms here really working - Or are they just some kind of inside joke among moderators?

They’re more like an outside joke among all of us. ;-o

Search me. Never even tried one.

@JLoon On edit, I’ve heard of worse “disasters” than a malfunctioning chat room. Trump for instance.

@Nomore lockout – Point taken. It’s a jelly world problem ;)

They used to be more active than they are now that there are so many fewer of us. Sometimes still get used; although I think there are times that people get stuck in them and can’t get out.

Let me know if you need a pulley.

@Brian1946 @Nomore lockout @janbb… and others, thanks for your answers. But since it looks like moderators are dodging this question (except to correct my spelling), my self guided tour of jelly world continues.

Maybe I can be Flo’s stunt girl.

Yeah the chat rooms seem to be broken big time AGAIN! what a shock.

They usually work for me but not today. Most of us use PM for one on one’s.

During this second decade of the 21st century, does anyone still use chat rooms? I recall that they were popular during the 1990s.

[Mod says] Thanks for letting us know. We’re experiencing some general issues at the moment, and the problem with the chatrooms has been added to the bug report. These glitches are capricious, so what’s broken for you may work perfectly for others (including mods).

Our sole programmer (Ben) has been alerted and will fix things as soon as possible.

@longgone – Hooray! Thanks for listening.

Nomore_lockout's avatar

Problem solved. Chat to your hearts content.

@Nomore_lockout Seems broken to me.

JLoon's avatar

@Krotopkin and @Nomore_lockout – I did it. Sorry.

Nomore_lockout's avatar

Nah, they have been off and on for awhile.

SQUEEKY2's avatar

I just tried it and still as broken an honest politician.

@Incoherency – Get me in and I’ll make you a margarita.

@JLo

If you look at the upper-right corner of this page, you should see a list titled “Users Chatting”.

You’re the third from the top, just below longgone. Therefore, you’re already in and so there’s no need to transmogrify me into a delicious drink. ;-p

JLoon's avatar

@Incoherency – (Sighs)...but not down here in the cheap seats.

Using my mobile what I see up in that corner is a Papa Jelly icon. Maybe someday I’ll be good enough for chat – But not tonight :(
