Sooz, check the yuku support forum. A few days ago there was an issue with chat and people getting kicked several times in a row.

Sounds like a simple lag problem. Especially if greeny was the only one effected.

The packets of information sent out from our pc's are bounced all over the shop before being re-assembled at their destination. if one packet is late the whole consignment is held up. Nothing to worry about.

Changing the chatroom made no difference to Been, neither did I really expect it to, it was just a potential quirk which had to be ruled out.

The type of pc would make no difference, the method of net connection may be a factor but mostly it will be traffic routing that will cause delays/lag or timeout bootings.
I can understand why picks might have been bumped from chatrooms several times though.

If I could give you a raspberry through the screen I would... So I'll do this instead!

LOL, the prosecution rests m'lud.

I think you're right about it being lag time though. Our computer's a little on the old side, and I was running a couple of different things last night.

Time lags in chat could be anything from your method of connecting to the internet, local network bottlenecks, server delays/overloads at busy times, etc. I've been on many chat boards in my life, and with a variety of different computers, and those types of problems can be pretty sporadic. I've seen it on a lot of boards where everyone else will seem to be chatting close to real time, and one person is lagging way behind, or everyone starts having the lags with a whole page of typing showing up at a time, then for no reason, it resolves itself.

No one would have believed in the last years of the twentieth century that this board was being watched keenly and closely by intelligences greater than man's and yet as mortal as his own; that as men busied themselves about their various concerns they were scrutinised and studied, perhaps almost as narrowly as a man with a sharper microscope might scrutinise the transient creatures that swarm and multiply in a drop of water. ...........

Ooo Laaaah

I find it easiest to just blame the service provider.
