I added back in Flashchat to the forum. Just click the link in the left menu to engage the chat feature. It should log you in automatically to the chat. A few comments. You will notice both in the friends online and in the users online at the bottom of the page that it will indicate users in chat now.
Now this is IMPORTANT. Please when leaving chat click the little red button in the upper right to exit. If you just close the popup window it will still think you are in chat until it clears itself out. I know it's easy to just close windows but if you could use the red buttom it would help. Picture below to show you what I mean.
After the chat closes and it shows you the login boxes again, then close the popup window.
THANKS and enjoy!
