| | YOUR CHAT REQUEST HAS TIMED OUT. PLEASE TRY AGAIN LATERPage 8 of 19 (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19) | I've gotten that same message every time I tried the chat feature, except the last time. It then said "chat declined". I was wondering... When I click: "Viewed Me" I see pictures of the ladies, then under the pictures it sometimes says: "Chat" or "Online Now". What exactly is the difference? If it says Chat, are they necessarily online? If it says Online Now, does that mean they prefer not to use the chat feature? Other than this, I've been very happy here, and it's only been one day. | |

If you get "Chat declined" it means she straight out threw you under the bus.
The only exception to the "Chat time out" would be that you send the chat request a couple of seconds after she logged off. You can check this by waiting 5 minutes and seeing if she is still available to chat. If so, it's confirmed that your sorry az was ignored.
So if these are your issues the chat feature is working PERFECTLY! | |

With this version I cant most of the time, I know she is online and that she is not receiving my chat invite. We are being used by POF as beta testers but they dont seem capable of curing their software problems.
Or will they shortly say its fixed but we have to upgrade and pay money to use it. | |

| Plentyoffish has a NEW INSTANT MESSENGER 5-31-2011 Post Problems Here Posted: 11/15/2011 7:08:41 PM | | I have tried chatting and when get chat session timed out and see that they are back on later and want to chat but it won't let me beacuse it still says chat session timed out! This happens alot with different ones that I have tried chatting with, why does it take so long before "session timed out" to go away? The person I want to chat with will be available for quite awhile but can't send another request because my session is timed out. | |

| POF Chat Crashes Internet Explorer, Google Chrome 17 Posted: 11/17/2011 5:13:39 AM | | I'm running Windows 7, 64 bit, with latest version of Internet Explorer or Google Chrome version 17. I am running the latest version of Adobe Shockwave. When I hit the chat button the window pops up but nothing happens butt a black screen and it crashes either of the two browsers. I feel there is a problem from the POF software trying to open Shockwave. I have tried many remedies including using older vesions of Chrome, and older versions of Shockwave, but to no avail. Any ideas from POF | |

| YOUR CHAT REQUEST HAS TIMED OUT. PLEASE TRY AGAIN LATER Posted: 11/21/2011 12:47:32 PM | 90% of my messages I send out get "timed out" . What is going on?
Wait a minute, I am a genius. They are getting "timed out" cuz the receipiants have chosen to ignore me instead of hitting "decline" which is the equivalent of throwing me under the bus.
Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuh.  | |

| YOUR CHAT REQUEST HAS TIMED OUT. PLEASE TRY AGAIN LATER Posted: 11/26/2011 8:31:11 PM | At least its not just me. Up until a day or 2 ago I was able to sometimes use the chat feature..but it was finicky...but now all I get is a black screen when I attempt to chat. I had one of my friends IRL try to chat me and it times out every time. Has anyone here had any success with solving this? Oh, and I did update my flash, to see if that was the problem, ....it wasnt. | |

| Plentyoffish has a NEW INSTANT MESSENGER 5-31-2011 Post Problems Here Posted: 11/29/2011 8:49:12 PM | Either way, when I go to "my city" and it lists all of my local matches, it usually shows most people as available to chat. Of course, the people that have disabled that function don't show up as available. However, recently almost nobody shows up as available to chat. It either shows them as "Online now", "Online today","Online this week", etc even though they are currently online.
I was curious if this is a widespread problem, if it was only me and/or if POF was aware of this issue.
Thanks

| Plentyoffish has a NEW INSTANT MESSENGER 5-31-2011 Post Problems Here Posted: 12/1/2011 9:29:53 PM | The instant messenger might serve the site better as a stand-alone application, rather than integrated into the browser, as most people just automatically ignore their pop-up blockers, or have multiple windows open, blocking any incoming IMs..
I'm just suggesting this after having almost every IM I try to send time out, it might take some of the roulette out of the equation. People could also set their status to Away, instead of simply being logged in and having an incoming time out. | |

| What does it mean?? Posted: 12/5/2011 10:41:44 AM | I understand that if the red "chat" word shows up the person is available and I can request to chat.
What if after a while, the word "chat" in red is not there anymore, and then after a while shows up again?
Does it mean the person is chatting?
Thank you,

| What does it mean?? Posted: 12/5/2011 11:42:17 AM | It simply means that the user turned off his IM/Chat function and then turned it back on.
Or it could mean that the user has logged out. | |

| i.m not working Posted: 12/8/2011 1:32:50 AM | | wot the hell is happening with my i.m. ..... it just goes to your request has timed out !! and why dont u answer these people ???? bunch of muppets!!! gettin really sick of your site !! | |
|
| i.m not working Posted: 12/8/2011 8:21:16 AM | It just means that the person you sent the chat request to ignored the chat because she did not want to chat with you for whatever reason. I believe if the recipiant simply closes the request window, it will show timed out. Some girls do this instead of hitting the "decline" button.
I don't see what is so complicated about this. Girls don't like chat (certainly if they are half decent looking) because either they will only answer the IM to Brad Pitt because of prnicess syndrome or are just busy going through all of the incomming mail. Most don't know that there is a feature to turn it off. | |
