Yes, they are in the big list of people online (which fills the chat up), but are not actually in the chatroom chatting. If you aren't wanting to chat, click the little icon thingy and switch it off.

It's a bug in the software, huck. Relax. I've seen it happen when there's only one person in the room.

You're 15. You have the rest of your life to wait for the chat to open.

Is there a way to turn off the chat feature permanently?

Chat? Nobody goes there anymore. It's too crowded.

Click on the people on line bar, then use options to turn off chat.

Yeah but every time I log in I have to do that. And it unless it registers full it blinks and changes color until I do.

Do you have to login to Sailnet every time? If not, chat should stay off. It does for me. Could have something to do with your browser also. (I use Firefox)
