For Users of the Chat System - 'Ignore Bug'

Hampers · 02-08-2009, 04:32 AM

As many of you know, there is a long-standing issue with the chat system, which results in many users becoming stuck with an alert that cannot be dismissed.

Depp has previously stated that he is not going to fix this problem currently. Due to a large number of continuing complaints, getDare.com staff have decided to suspend the 'ignore' feature until further notice. All current 'ignores' will be lifted. Any future 'ignores' created will be overturned ASAP.

If you have any questions please post them here and staff will reply shortly.

Suggestion: Could you just remove the button or link for Ignore, until it's fixed? That would seem to me to be a low tech solution that would keep the problem from occurring at all.

i believe as its 'flashchat' the whole thing is a compiled .swf file and would need the original .fla to be changed

I have removed the ignore button for now. A real fix will be made sometime in the future. Flashchat comes will the sources and I have made hacks to it in the past so this is possible. I just don't have time at the moment with school and work.
