Hello, I am the administrator of GagaLive.

Although our real time chat system LiveChat has been thoroughly tested with several sites for over 2 months, with continously more than 200~500 users connected concurrently nearly 24 hours a day.
Nothing can beat real life testing, so we are opening the system up for anyone to use.

Many free chat room systems have trouble scaling, but we designed our chat room server and client to be all scable from the start.
Unilke may other services we should have no problems handling tens of thousands of concurrent connections, and have acutally done simulation tests with up to twenty thousand concurrent connections.

Anyways, we hope you find our service useful.
b.t.w. this is a free service and we plan on keeping it free.

You would..

Hello, i testet your script and it was easy to integrate but there is one big hook.........

Each registered user will be logged in after visiting the flash but there is no ability to join or leave the chat.
This results in multiple presence of users who changed their view (to show other information) but already
logged in my site.

Please can you implement either buttons in Flash or commands like /join and /leave to your great service ?

I'm not sure what you mean, but one user by default can be connected only once to the same chat room. Try opening multiple windows and it will say you are already connected.

> Please can you implement either buttons in Flash or commands like /join and /leave to your great service ?
Actually this part would be better implemented on the php (or other program) using the flash chat. You could add a button that either just gets rid of the log in information sent to the flash or just not display the flash after pressing it.

Thanks for your suggestions.

Please add an option to not show chat history when members are entering. some members have expressed conserns that when entering the chat room the next day they can read what someone else chattet about that night.

2007.10.13 23:21:54 (*.78.113.31)

digirave

That option is already available
All chat rooms that end with an ! do not remember their chat history. (for secure chat room just create a chat room that ends with an !)

Hi

i'd just like to say how good i think this service is and easy to impliment

i was just wondering if there was any way to show the time that the messages were sent, or even a last message time?

digirave

Thanks,
Currently there is no option for "last message time", maybe we'll add it at our next upgrade.
The reason we did not add that option is because this chat system is meant for real time chatting, and for non-real time chatting a simple forum like program would perhaps be easier to implement.
Currently large chat rooms in our system have over 100 users in the same room, and it would be very annoying if the messages had time stamps on them.
But we could add this as an option for smaller chat rooms.

Have a nice day.

2007.12.24 22:07:00 (*.173.166.2)

digirave

That's when your connection hasn't been disconnected properly due to network error etc...
If you wait a while it gets disconnected.

Have a nice day.

Hello again another problem :

when user is BANIP it seem to come back few minutes after.

also can banned users be Permanent ban from chat.

Thanks

2008.01.08 01:02:19 (*.173.166.2)

digirave

Currently IP bans last for a few hours, if he came back a few minutes later, most likely the user IP changed. I didn't add permanent IP bans because that often affects innocent users too, since most have dynamic IPs at home.

Have a nice day.

hello digirave,

I like your live chat. If you are interested in embedding flash webcam to the live chat let me know and I'll email you the flash files that I have on hand, you can short through them and figure out which ones you need in order for flash webcam to work in the live chat.

Thanks,

Adamion

Thanks for your offer, but we are already testing webcam chat on our international version. In time we plan to port it to english also.

Have a nice day.

sound on chat notifications would be nice. I understand in larger environments it would be irritating, but a simple toggle would fix that.

Thanks for your suggestion. We will consider it.
Have a nice day~
