I too have the issue with the slap and me commands. Firefox reports no error from what I saw and I found it interesting that once I entered enough chats to take the /me command I had typed off of the screen, Explorer allowed me to continue however, never showed the actual /me text. (It actually submitted the /me text but never did display it - not even in the archive where Firefox was complete) Hows that for an oddity?
Hum so that's only when you enter the slap and me on IE. Very odd as it works well for me So if you don't see it in the archives, that mean it doesn't get submitted right ?

I don't think it's in the stylevar, it's certainly in the arcade mod additionnal css.

What really baked my cookies was that if I opened Firefox, and removed the /me chat, I could refresh Explorer and all was well. Firefox showed the /me text perfectly in the chat window and in the Archive so it did get submitted ~ Explorer simply stalled on submission (Little animated circle did it's thing forever and other users were unable to chat (I asked, they too were on Explorer). Explorer would also return to a functional state if I disable the /me command.
Nice huh?

You nailed it there! I opened ARCADE.CSS and as you probably expected, ALT1/ALT2 were in use. I removed both references and I can at least see the times and such now as they were black on my present black background.. .
(Now tempted to delete the entirety of ARCADE.CSS to see if some other illnesses go away...)
As usual, thanks!
i tryed to update it from 1.1 to 3.0 worked but the UserCp Edit Options blanked out no possibility to edit something there white page i tryed to disable all stuff which could be costumer changed in usercp for this mod like "setup which channel" but still the same issue ofcourse i deinstalled it than and installed the new version from scratch and again the same issue any idea?
