Another holiday season has come and gone and you're probably back to work/school like the rest of us already. All of us here at SocialGamer hope that you guys had a great holiday, whatever you celebrate, and got some really cool stuff. I know I did. Please feel free to come visit us in #SocialGamer or compete in our Idle RPG in #IdleRPG, we can always use some new competition.

I bought myself an HD PVR with my Christmas money this year, so expect to see me streaming a lot more. I encourage you all to do the same.

P.S. Screw New Years Resolutions, it's not like any of us are gonna change!! xD

Flash chat not connecting?

Sometimes the Flash chat doesn't want to connect the first time (it'll sit there for several seconds and then put up a message that it isn't allowed to connect to the server). We can't reproduce this reliably, and therefore we cannot fix it. Most of the time, refreshing the page resolves the problem. Sorry for any inconvenience.

Chat Updates

We've implemented a Flash-based chat client in addition to the Java-based chat client we've been using. It also connects to our chat server and automatically logs you in to NickServ. You can choose which one you want to use on your Account Options page. We've defaulted everyone to the new Flash client.

We're also tracking the number of people in a channel (excluding bots) and are sorting the live streams list by this, so more popular streams are at the top (and streams which choose to have their chat hosted elsewhere are at the bottom).

Not using our chat?

If you currently have a stream description that tells your viewers to go somewhere else for chat, don't be surprised when that description is automatically removed. We work hard to improve and maintain our services, please be supportive.
