I hate to add new problems, but will the chat room be operational in time for the SC? :D

The Steward wrote: The reason the chat room was changed was because the chat room is the #1 culprit in why the SIM crashes/is slow/won't load. The new chat room isn't permanent by any means, we just had to ditch the old one.
Thank you for explaining.

Hope all ends up well with this issue, for you & the chat & the SIM! :)

Not only that, but I just downloaded Firefox...and it still won't work. It won't let me download any Adobe Plug-Ins, either.

Yeah, I'm having the same problems. Plus, my stupid laptop keeps telling me I'm low on disk space. That cannot be good.

Try this:


1. goto <a href='http://www.meebo.com/' target='_blank'>Meebo</a> (nothing to download)

2. sign in with your AOL screen name & password (or yahoo, google, MSN etc). You DO NOT have to sign up for MEEBO (so leave the MEEBO sign in blank)

3. goto "Rooms" on top & click

4. On the new page, goto the search box on the upper left & type in SIM

5. Voila! You're in! :D

I just uploaded Adobe Flash and went to chat but the same thing happened. A little box came up with a red X in the corner. What am I doing wrong?

I am sad now, I can't hang with any SIMsters in chat. :(

EDIT: I HAD the problem fixed, but my laptop really sucks so I can't get in.

Awww :(. Works fine in Firefox for me. Did you try restarting? Or maybe even try in IE, I guess.

Might try in IE next time... Annoying that it won't work in the browser I like, though. :P
