There may be no formal alert, but I'm actually rather pleased with the way the chat works. You can send sounds (smscollect was *meow*ing me all night!) so that helps get people's attention when they're idling, and better still is that if you mention their name in your message, not only will it highlight red but it will send a small beep so you know you're being spoken to. Not bad for an applet. I've not heard any sounds from it (Chunk did apparently "meow" at me, but I only saw the text), maybe because I've disabled them at the browser level. That sounds like something I'd do. Now, if only there was some way to disable the graphical emoticons... Thanks for the info.

Good to see more and more people use the chat! It's alive and kicking.

And now I am. :) I generally don't bother with that chat thing even if I'm browsing the site; it's too easy to miss messages.

It wouldn't work for me for ages so I stopped trying. Working fine now though.

Sigh, guess I missed you. I sat in there for awhile, but no one showed. I'm going to change this thread to the 'I'm lonely in chat come see me' thread. I wish there was some way to notify other users who's currently in there.

Yeah me too, a noticfication in the forum would be cool. Yeah, a "now chatting" feature would be nice. However, given that both the forum and, I assume, the chat applet are proprietary, I don't see that happening.
