Ok, i just want to give some info regarding the chatroom to try and increase its use and popularity. Also, hopefully by making this new thread people will use it more for the King of Wifi thread so people can more easily set up matches.
Setting up Matches
Using the chatroom makes setting up matches more efficient.
Ex. "Anyone up for a match? I'll be in the chatroom if anyone accepts challenge" - If someone goes to the chat and accepts it will make a sound so you just need to keep your volume up and wait for the *ding*, instead of waiting next to the computer, constantly refreshing the thread.
So anyway here are the basics of the xat chatroom.....
Profile (you don't need to register or sign up at all to use the chat)
Click YourName at the top of the visitors list on the right to set up your profile. If you are new to the chat box you will have been assigned a silly name like WuggyBunch and a random picture but these are easy to change.
Enter your FC in the "Home Page" section so people can view it. Now you won't have to type it in each time you set up a match.
Visitor List
The visitor list is a list of people that are currently chatting in the room. Each name has a person symbol next to it and the color indicates their status. Green is online, red is off-line, gold is owner, silver is moderator, blue is member, grey is ignored and brown is banned.
When you send a message your person in the visitor / friend list will glow green to indicate you are talking. When others send messages you will be able to see their person glow as well.
Games
You can challenge other chatters to games. Click the 'games' tab and choose between Pool, Chess, 4 in a row and shoot. Then private chat someone and challenge them to a game!
Doodle
This is a drawing feature. It seems to be where it's at. lol Right now ArdeS, NintendoJoe, Swordplay and Waffles have drawn an exact replica of Green Hill Zone.
Smiles
You can add smiles but either clicking the mouse on one of the default smiles above the message entry box or by using the code for the smilie. E.g. : - ) is the code for the standard yellow smilie. There are lots of additional smiles that are not part of the standard set that can be found at http://xat.com/help?ss=5
Audies
Audies are sound effects that can be added to messages. An audie is sent by using # followed by the name of the sound.
Other
There is also private messaging/chat as well as "marry/bestfriend" which I'm not even going to talk about. Am I missing anything important?
Most of this stuff I just copied from the help section, but yeah, check it out.
