Chat room problem

Post by The Prototype »

I haven't been able to type in chat, every time I type a message and hit the enter key all I get is "###### Unregistered copy, evaluation only.###### Unregistered copy, evaluation only."

I don't know it keeps doing it, I can click on the faces and such and send those into the room, but I cannot chat in there.

It seems it was just my other computer that wouldn't let me type, it works fine on this computer...

Yeah, it only appeared everytime I typed a message and sent it, but it would let me send the faces in the room.

the "-" before and after your name may be causing the error

Will probably have to change your nickname. You maybe able to change it by typing /nick <name here> when you try to login (don't include the symbols, except for the slash before nick.

image #.4
button labeled config in image 4 is the same as the screw driver/spanner icon on the current chat interface, click on it.
change your nickname then click on the litle arrow/yellow ball icon to reconect.
that should get you in, you must be logged onto the BB to use the chat tho.

Steve.

ps. sorry the help page is outdated.

My problem was a little weird, on my new one I cannot type, on this one in my room I can, it's a little strange.
