SpeedFlex27 Posted October 28, 2017 Report Share Posted October 28, 2017 (edited) This is for Rich & the mods here asking something be done about Babble. Ever since it was installed there have been issues with disconnection & freezing. Every game it does this. Today was especially bad. I must have been disconnected well over 20 times. It got so bad I left chat. Is there nothing that can be done? Can we use a different chat? Edited October 28, 2017 by SpeedFlex27 wbbfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without trying to going into a lot of the technical details that will bore most people into why it has been bad then better and worse again, there has been some back and forth on the hosting and how the backend chat server has been working. Right now we are on a hosted version of Babble. Just installed a release today that I am told should clear some of these issues up. If it doesn't, I will have to return to a self hosted version where I can control resources allocated to it. It is not a quick thing to set that server up, so if I end up going that route, it will have to wait until I can find the cycles to do it.

Tehedra Posted November 3, 2017 Report Share Posted November 3, 2017 I've had problems since the start of Babble, although it has become progressively worse. I hope that this game is better and the changes they did worked out. If it doesn't, I wonder if there is a tool that would provide the chat to be hosted over an IRC connection that just feeds to the web interface. Back in the day I know this was possible, there are plenty of free providers for IRC clients that would allow us to continue to chat. Might be worth a consideration Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IRC is rock-solid technology that's been around for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpeedFlex27 Posted November 4, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2017 (edited) I guess we'll see how things go tonight. The chat function on Game Day is a huge perk here for us & it would be so nice if it worked properly.
