Ooops, didn't mean to wreck things in chat! I'm not sure what was happening but I do have a pop up blocker so maybe that was the problem. Sorry about that folks.
Edited: Well dang it doesn't appear to be a pop up problem. Can someone tell me what was happening on your end? I kept getting the welcome message and the "be kind and remember the rules" message over and over. I think I better just stick to the message board, lol.
