Chats tonight (Wednesday 19/07/2017)

TheMixTheMix Posts: 3,040 Boards Guru
Hey guys,

Support chat and general chat are running tonight, both from 8-9:30pm.

Support chat: A place to talk about anything on your mind in a safe, supportive environment. Elena and Amy will be modding.

General chat: A place for more light-hearted chat about pretty much anything be it TV, music, the weather, that hilarious video you saw on YouTube etc. Sand and James will be modding.

Following on from a recent incident with a spammer, we'll be passwording all chat rooms until we fix the problem. The password for the chat rooms tonight will be TheAmazingSpiderman. :thumb:

EDIT: we're disabling the password for tonight - we think we've managed to fix the issue.

You can find the 'join' links on this page from 8pm. :)

Have a good one!

Mike
We're @Aife, @Ella, @Emma_, @Gemma, and @JustV - the staff team here at The Mix.

Our DMs are monitored Monday - Friday (10am - 6pm) with limited cover on weekends. We have a great team of moderators looking after the community outside of those hours to check in on any reported posts.

We're not able to provide support on this account. If you need support urgently for any reason, please call 999, go to your nearest A&E or contact Crisis Messenger by texting THEMIX to 85258.

    Quick update on this - we think we've managed to patch the exploit being used by the spammers, so we'll be disabling the password for tonight. One less thing to worry about!

    Right... I can finally stop saying "TheAmazingSpiderman" out loud and to myself. Have been saying it since I saw this thread at like 12! Haha. I kept saying "Athena90" to myself yesterday and couldn't even get in - crappy 3G lol!

    Is anyone else getting "name not available"
    “And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley

    Hey guys.

    We're not really sure why this is happening - I'm just trying a few things to see if we can fix it. Moderators are able to access the rooms but for some reason it looks like you guys can't. Bear with me a sec and keep letting us know if you get any other problems or if you manage to fix it. :)

    Sorry!

    While chat is still being annoying and broken, feel free to use this space to talk to each other. We can have a chat boards thread until things are up and running again. :)
