I know that Mutual Endeavors has been around for two years now, approaching our third very soon, but seems that some old issues still remain. The flashchat has been seeing more use than it ever has, and it saddens me to say that unfortunately we are still experiencing technical difficulties. This pushes me even more toward considering Mike's suggestion that the site undergo an overhaul, but I do not expect I'll be able to find the time to discuss this until August at the earliest. So please bear with us while we battle our bugs.
A week ago a small handful of players decided to try making use of the ME flashchat while GR's flashchat was currently undergoing some tweaking. This worked for a little while, but our members noticed that some of the lines were getting eaten. This problem remains.
Additionally, the same old issue of members being present in the chat, but not showing as being present in the chat in the flashchat screen itself, also remains. Today we experimented with a little "People Who Are Watching the Forums" party started by member Corlanthis. The few of us present at the time were forced to suffer this inconvenience among others.
Much to my dismay, I do not know the first thing about the code work that goes into making a flashchat functional. One little click from the flashchat screen itself brings me to a page full of a strange, foreign language, and I don't even know where to begin looking for potential problem solvers. What ME really needs is a code monkey!
It is my hope that within the next couple of months, even more hopefully before the end of the year, that all these problems will be fixed and that Mutual Endeavors will be an even bigger and better more fully operational website than what you our members are used to. Particularly where the flashchat is concerned. While we do not support the creation of settings for role-playing on our site, we do however wish to support a player OOC meeting ground. Some place other than the better known Lobby on Dragon's Mark where players can sit and chat about role-playing and life in general.
We do not log our flashchat and do not intend to ever do so. There will never be an administrator reviewing logs of discussions that happen in our flashchat. Mutual Endeavors is not responsible for the comments and opinions shared by its members. This includes on our forums as well.
Until such time that we get all these issues handled, please continue to enjoy the Mutual Endeavors community. Anyone and everyone is welcome here who role-plays. But remember that here we go beyond the masks of our characters. Here we are all only people, simply flawed and too terribly human.
