Sorry I didn't make it in there tonight fellas.  One of my neighbors stopped by for a couple hours.  I'm leaving town tomorrow for about a week.  So I probably won't make it back in there for a week.  Catch you next time.

Bill

Caz,

  You can also go to the chat thru Java.  This is one of the reasons it was set up this way. Some people don't like or can't get in thru irc but pretty much everyones computer now comes with Java so you can go that way.  If you don't have java or have an old version of it you can go to  http://www.java.com/en/   and download it for free.  The download button is green and says get java.   If you continue to have problems or issues you can either  post them here or  on the shooters chat "problems getting into chat" area, it's the bottom thread.

   Hope this helps
 
    Take care Be safe Poacher.

264shooter,


   Most of the time I don't get in there till at least 8:30pm. By then there is usually Mort or DirtyDingus or Pecos there. Not always but we try. Sorry that you haven't been sucessful in there. Don't give up. It takes awhile for a chat like this to catch on and while that's happening it can be rough.  Sorry that you haven't had any luck yet. I hope we can catch each other in there some time and chew the fat.

  Take care Be safe Poacher.

Just thought I'd update this a little for anyone who's intrested.  There's pretty much someone in the chat from about 8Pm to at least 10 Pm every night.   We have gotten the majority of the bugs worked out  and the chat will work in Java or Irc.  We would love to see more people jump in there.   If for some reason you are having a problem post it in the forum and it will be addressed.   Dirty Dingus, Pecos, Myself or BlackPowdernut are there enuf that if you need to leave us a PM here we can get it to the right people. 

  We look forward to seeing you there!

  Take care Be safe Poacher.

Folks,

   Just wanted to update the invite to you all to jump in the chat room.  I know we have grown here by leaps and bounds so I thought I'd just say everyone is welcome in the chat room.   Just follow the blue link from here.  Someone is usually in around 8pm CST  and we stay till at least 10pm, some days later. 

   The room will work with either Java or Irc.  The standard rules of decorum and civility prevail.  We discuss just about everything and even get into some loading and shooting discussions to boot.

   Hope to see ya there.   Take care Be safe Poacher.
