I think it must be a problem with your computer/internet connection.
As I suggested earlier, it's worth trying another computer to see if the problem is your account or not.

Also - we've had a lot of chat threads recently. It's usually better to bump an existing thread than make a new one.



It doesn't matter where you come from; it matters where you go.
No-one gets remembered for the things they didn't do.
We won't all be here this time next year,
so while you can take a picture of us.
We're definitely going to hell,
but we'll have all the best stories to tell.

I think OP's problem is a blue screen, without the "authentication failed" message but he's reluctant to try other computers/browsers.

I am unsure what would be causing the problem.

Good luck! I had the same issue with Firefox on my computer and chat has worked previously for me.

I'm wondering if things like java etc are updated?

We've verified that the issue is with OP's computer/internet, not their account. Any other suggestions? I'm running out of ideas!

Even so, the problem is not with your account, or the website itself; the problem lies with your computer/internet.

I will keep looking for a solution.

I know I mentioned before, but what happens when you test the 8080 port?
I'm at uni where it (and therefore chat) is blocked and it won't load. if something appears then it works.

This server listens on all TCP ports, allowing you to test any outbound TCP port.
You have reached this page on port 8080.
Your network allows you to use this port. (Assuming that your network is not doing advanced traffic filtering.)

that is what i see... not real sure what i am looking at

-Do you have your own internet connection/modem or like Sophia said, are you at a Uni or someplace else where the internet could be filtered? i am at home...

-If you've got a modem, do you connect through wifi or ethernet cable? cable

-The other thing with your internet connection- is it solid? Does it cut out a lot, or is it very slow? no, i never have issues

Could be an ISP issue? I know that if you have changed ISP (certainly in the UK) recently that they automatically turn the filters on. Could the chat be seen as adult and therefore blocked?

I could be on the wrong track but that thought occurred to me. My parents are shortly going to changing ISPs and I dont want chat issues because of that.
