MemberAlright this has been happening for awhile.
If I join a chatroom, after like 5 min,
No one types and no one can see me typing.
Even in private messages.
I just have to exit out of yahoo and relog in.
Why does it do this?? 🙁

ParticipantYou Might of added a Booter on your list that boots you off the chat room or some one realy hates you and you are being booted by them.. dw the new version of Yahoo will be safe and unbootable.. you might as well go through your list and start deleteing people you dont know.

MemberMany questions, many differents solutions. First regarding priopen’s question. Yahoo has been doing a lot of server changes and updates lately, and if you happen to be connected to one of the server they are updating, then it’s a yahoo thing. So whatever server you are connected to is breaking away from the pack so to speak. This causes no one to see you, hear you, etc. The only solution is to log out and back in again. My suggestion is to try another name for a while.
It could be a boot, but I highly doubt it. Boots usuallly take away your voice server so you either can hear or can’t voice, or they totally kick out off yahoo all together. But making your type invisible to all other users is something I have not heard of.
There is also another type of boot called a lagger. This lags your connection to yahoo to the point where none of your data is going thru, and no data is coming back.
Regarding your trying to get back into a room and having problems, again my suggestion is to sign in with a new name, it usually works to get you right online, and right in the room, then wait about five minutes and try your other name again. If you are lagging under that name, it may take a while for it to be logged off yahoo.

MemberThis is a topic that has been circulating quite a bit here lately. I’d suggest you look through some of the posts that are already here. As Netti tried to explain to you there are a lot of updates and changes going on on Yahoo!’s side. There may NOTHING that YOU can do….except wait. :((And if you are REALLY curious and don’t feel like waiting, go to the top of this very screen. There’s a search function on the left hand side, you can search this forum for the topic and see what others have figured out thus far. You’re new here so you may not have discovered the wonders of “search” but I LOVE it! There’s usually something you can find of relevance if the topic’s already been covered. Plus, you can add to the topic if you need a more specific answer. Don’t get discouraged!! Somehow, someway, someone here will figure out this problem. 🙂 You’ve come to the right place.
