HI guys. The deadline of the mapping contest is the first of October. Don't forget, it's just plain ol' mapping.

The chatbox seems to be working again now.

However, it doesn't time out users and it still doesn't refresh messages. I have reported the problems to Forumotion who said they'd do some checks.

Edit:
Sorry guys, I forgot i was using Chrome browser. It always deletes the words i typed.
I wrote something along the lines of chatbox problem escalating into forum shutdown.

I'm NOT promoting anything
It's jsut that there are no updates and really, this is a new feature that is available on the portal, but not yet activated.
