Wanted: chat testers

TheMixTheMix Posts: 3,040 Boards Guru
Hey guys,

You may have read about the issues we're having with spammers in chat at the moment. See this thread if you haven't ;)

We're working on a couple of cunning plans to stop these spammers from bothering us again. One of these plans involves using some different chat software until our own, new software is ready. This is our backup plan just in case everything else doesn't work.

We've found some software we like, but to make sure it's ready if we need it, we need to test it out and make sure it does everything we need it to do.

That's where you guys come in!

We need a handful of people to come and help us test and set up this backup software. All you need is a phone or computer with internet and a spare couple of hours during the day next week (exact time and day is to be decided).

If you're interested in helping out, just reply in this thread and we'll be in touch via PM next week :)

Look forward to hearing from you!

James

    Some people think I am unhappy. I'm not. I just approach silence in the world that never stops talking.

    Thanks for the amazing response folks!! It's great to see so many of you up for helping out :)

    We'll be creating a private sub-forum today for us to co-ordinate some testing. Look out for it in the 'Admin' section later on today.

    See you there :thumb:

    Thanks for the offer Lane!
    We've actually finished testing for now, but there'll be another chance in a few weeks when we start rolling out the new chat software :)
    Keep an eye out for more news about that.
