@JellyB so, it’s bofus are confused…

rahb's avatar

@JellyB well, either no one is here or they don’t want us to know ;)

@rahb I wonder….....i DID ask in another q also, but nobody replied…... hm…....

I just read something with a link to “the wateringhole” which must be the chat, but when I clicked on it, it said I couldn’t go in at this time??? something about being around a few weeks and attacks??

Oh, hey, i just saw this in another q:

_You need to be an active member of Fluther for a while before you can access the chat now. Once you’ve been around for a few weeks, send a private comment to either johnpowell, delirium or PnL (the chat moderators) and they will give you a link.

Sorry for the stuffiness, but we’ve had a bunch of spam attacks recently. Hope you understand._

Hey—JellyB, weren’t you at the Q where I found it yesterday? I’ll be right back with link.

Edit: LINK

Also, you totally were.

Now BOOKMARK the page that link takes you too. We keep it hardish to find for the reasons mentioned above.

Important: Do not bookmark once you are in the room. That doesn’t work from what I’ve been told.

If you look down, Allie posts a link to the chat. I am following that question so it shows up when I want to go in.

@JellyB well, I tried here. My first two Q’s got wiped out and now I can’t join the general discussion. And you know how dangerous I am…I am saddened

JellyB's avatar

@rahb I KNOW! I got one of my Qs removed today too…. sigh…. we’ll sulk together… ;)

JellyB's avatar

@EmpressPixie Tnx for the link! I was waiting for someone to show me where i can log in myself, but then i just read somewhere now that new users can’t access the chatroom without a link, or something….. :)

EmpressPixie's avatar

Honestly, the link to the chat changes a LOT. They usually do a big “okay guys, NEW LINK” question when it changes. But we’ve had issues with a spammer (really, it’s basically been one person) so that’s why it is kind of like a cloak and dagger game to find the thing. When I want to get in, I usually try five old links that all look like they should be right but show no one in the room… sigh.

rahb's avatar

@jeanna thx for the effort.

JellyB's avatar

@EmpressPixie LOL! Well, you gotta do what you gotta do….. :)

rahb's avatar

@EmpressPixie it shouldn’t have to be a Sherlock Holmes routine everytime, but thx for the news. At least I’m not being completely ignored…

EmpressPixie's avatar

@rahb: It’s mostly a Sherlock Holmes routine because I don’t take my own advice and bookmark the thing. So I end up searching old questions and… anyway. A bookmark would solve it. I just don’t.

Edited to add: Actually, while it was up this weekend, I did, I just never have before.

rahb's avatar

@EmpressPixie well, if I ever get in, I’ll book mark it and join in the fun…

EmpressPixie's avatar

Hurry! JellyB is already there…

JellyB's avatar

@rahb I got in now! Click on that link up top!!

rahb's avatar

I tried, wouldn’t let me in with what I know is my email and password. see you folks later…

At 11:55am EST, JellyB, Kelly & Rahb were all in chat room, so the link(s) must be working now.
