Hello All, I have received numerous complaints about guys going into the chat under assumed names and trolling by calling people names and generally giving people a hard time. You may have even experienced this yourselves.
We have received requests to require a user-name and password before being able to enter the chat. This should eliminate trolling problems so that you all can continue to chat and have a good time.
When there are issues regarding log-in, 99% of the time it will be a setting on your browser. I will add some tech advice links to help resolve any lingering log-in issues.
Your understanding and patience while we try to improve the chat is appreciated. :-)

To change from the system issued password to your own easy to remember password, follow these instructions:
1: Click to the Chat page
2: Click on "NEW! Registration / Update Password" link
3: Click on "Log in to change settings"
4: Enter your member name and CURRENT password and then click "login to change settings"
5: Click on "Change password"
6: Continue to follow the easy instructions to change your current password to an easy one for you to remember. (Don't make it an obvious one: abcd or 12345 or your name)

Hey Hector, thanks for understanding! lol I appreciate your being on this site and contributing. You are a very smart roller man and have much knowledge and experience to share.
I remember something a mentor shared with me once and that was "to succeed, you must keep your head while everyone else around you is losing theirs".
Oftentimes, I have seen what "change" does to people and the ones who adapt most readily to change usually come out ahead.
You are a shot-caller and what you say has more influence than what you may realize. Your posts are seen by between 600 to 700 visitors a day. When you say something is "good" or "bad" it influences many. Just food for thought and now I am rambling...lol

If it is any consolation, I just got in by following directions, I am the most computer illiterate on this site.
Tony, good quote from "If" by Rudyard Kipling
"If you can keep your head, when all about you are losing theirs and blaming it on you?
many more lines
ends in
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
AND, which is more
You'll be a man my son!"

Hey thisroll, email me your old and new username and password and I will look into it for you.
Also, Hector, you can do the same and I will let you know what I find out. Thanks guys.
Hey Snake, while it is a good saying, I have to admit, it is not always easy to accomplish. Good thing for something called "grace"!
