BBC Sherlock Fan Forum - Serving Sherlockians since February 2012 / CHAT ROOM!

@SusiGo don't worry, I don't really mind. I just don't know if there's other stuff on there and people who want to know absolutely nothing about the episode might want to be warned

What happened is that the Spoiler chat has become the 'defacto chatroom'...therefore, anyone who wanted to talk about things the others didn't want to hear moved to the other chatroom (because it has been empty forever). But people have talked about it and all HLV spoiler chat will stop and it will not start back up until the episode airs. Sorry for those who may have had any problems with this, it has been corrected.

Thanks for the warning, Molly.
We have two chatrooms for a reason so people should really observe the rules. I for example do not want any more spoilers before Sunday.

sj, we cross-posted. Thanks for the information.

Yeah, it's not that difficult guys, come on. "Spoiler Chat" and "Spoiler Free Chat"...the clue's in the name.

Is something going on with the chat right now, like server maintenance or something? Or is it just my connection? I had this error message earlier:

Access forbidden!

Hey there

Should be working today, guys. It was maintainence day yesterday.

**Posted by TeeJay** February 23, 2014 9:27 am

It actually worked again later on. I figured it was probably maintenance, so it's all good.

I would suppose there are several open chat rooms in the world wide web.....

**Posted by kittykat** September 9, 2014 8:34 pm

Ah, I didn't see that...

**Posted by kittykat** September 22, 2014 7:46 pm

Chat room still down...

**Posted by Sherlock Holmes** September 23, 2014 7:40 am

You're right. Looks like the link has broken. I'll check it out.

**Posted by Sherlock Holmes** September 23, 2014 8:18 pm

Here is a temporary link directly to the chat room whilst the website links gets fixed - http://www.rumbletalk.com/client/chat.php?31T-csH:

I don't understand how it works with the chat room?
I've never been able to use it properly, no matter when I tried. It just keeps adding my name several times to the chat and then crashes. Or asks me to sign up to some RumbleTalkScheme. Each time. What am I doing wrong?

**Posted by Sherlock Holmes** September 24, 2014 10:01 pm

The chat room is back up and running again now on the main website: http://bbcsherlock.com/chat/

Whisky, all you need to do is enter a nickname for yourself, or use your Twitter account, or your Facebook account to login. Click "click her to join the conversation", then choose "guest" if you don't want to use Facebook, Twitter or RumbleTalk.

I didn't do anything different, but now it works for me!! Cool

I'm wondering if the chat room is definitely down? "http://bbcsherlock.com/chat/" seems to be a dead link (at least for me^^)

**Posted by Harriet** November 6, 2014 8:15 pm

Same here, Titania, been like that for quite a while.

**Posted by SusiGo** November 6, 2014 8:20 pm

Please ask the boss. I have no idea what happened there.
