I made two groups just now and I need to use a different Usernames. But even I used any chatbox by xat.com I always use the same Username.
How can I change my username in one of my chatbox without affecting the other one?
Please help me.... Thank you in advance

Let us simplify, how can I log-out from chatbox and create new Username?
Because everytime I open chat box. I am automatically logged as what the last user name I used.
Is there a way for that? Looking forward for your immediate support. Thank you

The only way at the moment is to create a 2nd user account on your Windows XP.
We may add user logins in the future.

So there's no way to use two different usernames at the same PC or PC Account? One reason why I want to change both my username in two different chat group is that, I dont want my members in my forum site to know that I have other board.
That was Im looking the user log-in features...I think its the most important feature than adding images, sounds and design. Though its attracting user.
Good luck guys..

So you would want to tell the chat box "who you where" before you log in.
Andyou wouldn't need a password just a dialog to choose:
User A
User B
User C

Great great!
But can you do something like, when the chat box displayed there's a pop-up window where you can input your username? Because it's always happened that, when you logged in different computer, and open the chatbox you have automatic username.
I dont think its hard to do, and I know you can do it guys :)
Good luck and waiting for this feature.. ;)

The latest version will go some way to helping with this. You can have more than one ID stored in the chat box.
The feature is aimed at families so its still not 100% what you want but prob good enough for now.
It still auto-logs you in so you have to log out quick and change your user or change user on an intermediate room first.

You can't. But you don't need to, just don't use them.

NO NO NO we dont want new version to auto log you in. Please Please Please, we want more privacy then this and it will fix the problem with not wanting trouble makers in your chat.You go into these different groups and lobby and its bad enough all the CRAP you see typed.We want where we log in our selves and a password would be nice too.Remember,the customer is always RIGHT!!!!

Are you saying you want to be able to see the messages without logging in.
Or are you saying you don't want to be logged in because you don't want page owners to know you're on their page.
Privacy cuts both ways. Is it right to allow you to snoop around someones page without them knowing. Is it fair you see their messages without logging in?
>then this and it will fix the problem with not wanting trouble makers in your >chat.
We are going to address this but I don't think this has anything to do with autologin does it?
>You go into these different groups and lobby and its bad enough all the CRAP >you see typed.
If you don't like the lobby and various groups you can just not visit them?
>We want where we log in our selves and a password would be nice >too.Remember,the customer is always RIGHT!!!!
Yes but remember there are two customers, Owners and visitors. We need to strike a balance.

I want the login as well coz other accounts on your computer might go onto your site and use your names.

If you don't trust other users of your computer you should set them up with their own account.
But at some point in the future we need to add user log ins
