Are you having a problem with the Gameday LIVE Chat?

Read this LINK  here and hopefully it will fix your problem.


HOWEVER...

If you still have a problem please post as much information as you possibly can. If you could post a screen shot, that would be the BEST thing for me to help fix your problem.

If I can physically see the problem, I can damn near promise I can fix it.



To take a picture (aka ... screen shot) press your "Print Screen" button.

To display the picture and create a file of that screen shot.
Click Start > All Programs > Accessories > Paint

Once the MS Paint program opens up, press CTRL + V and you'll see your screen shot.

Then go to File > Save As and save the file to your desktop.

Then email that file to Kevin@PackersHome.com and I'll do my best to guide you to fixing the problem.


















The information that is most beneficial to assisting you would be.
[ul]Operating System (ie, Windows 2000, Windows XP, MAC OSX, etc)
Internet Browser (ie, FireFox, Internet Exploer, Opera, etc)
Internet Connection (ie, Broadband, Dial up, DSL, etc)[/ul]

If you can provide more information, don't hesitate to offer it up. And please, I will help you now but during the game or on game day I won't. I have a couple things I need to be doing during that time. 😉

No chat problems, but I can say the forum does act really weird in Chrome .

This message will appear in the chat window when security software or hardware, such as antivirus software or a firewall, on your computer or your network, is preventing your computer from talking to the IRC server. In other words, your security software or hardware is attempting to "protect" you from chat.

We commonly see this problem with the Windows XP firewall, Zone Alarm, McAfee, and some anti-virus software with built in firewall. Also, if you are accessing chat via a corporate intranet or some similar network, often times IRC traffic will be blocked by a network firewall.

If you see this error, consult your software user guides or local IT administrator for how to configure your security software or hardware to allow "outgoing IRC traffic" on "Port 6667" for the "chat.aero.und.edu" server. Unfortunately, our staff cannot provide specific technical support on all security software or hardware; however, we can provide tips for the following two situations:

Chrome is still in BETA although I read they were about to step out of BETA with it.

The forum is best viewed on Firefox.

My problem is the "invite" problem. I have NO problems before the game. Everything loads automatically and works fine. Once the game starts, though,if I get disconnected and try to reconnect I get the screen shown and none of the buttons excepting help work, and no one "shows up" in chat. I get a "cursor point" and am able to type, but when I hit enter it says something along the lines of "not connected to a channel" or "no channel".. I forget. Also note how it says
applet member started...it stays like that.

Again, before the game and during the game everything works perfectly as long as there is no disconnect. If I get disconnected before the game, I am able to reconnect without problem. If it is during the game, however..I have the "problem" I don't know how we are supposed to contact you in chat if nothing works... I am missing something in the translation. I posted this instead of e-mailing because I think others are having the exact same problem and thought it would be helpful.

I wouldn't even keep bringing this up, because I know it has to be more than a little bit of a pain in your ass, but I know I speak for many when I say it is a lot more fun to watch the game side-by-side with the chat in order to be able to bitch and cheer as the situation warrants. It's a really nice feature you have set up, and when it is working, it's fantastic... e.g. STFU dhazer (who CAN'T LOVE doing that--just kidding, d)... so, what I'm saying is, thanks for the features and the obvious effort and I'm hopeful it is fixable.

Sorry for the widescreen post, too. paint.net didn't clue me in properly, etc. I'm not properly geequalized in this particular situation.

You're supposed to send Zero2Cool a private message asking to be invited into the chat room. Then it works fine.

No you are NOT supposed to send me a Private Message. I do not check the forums often at all during game day.

Hey Zero, I just logged into the chat to make sure everything was working, and I am getting the same issue as dfosterf. I can't join the #packershome chat room, even though the same is like 21 hours away.

Have I been banned or something? I don't think I did anything wrong 🙂
