@dan-mitchell Ditto. In fact, I've been gobsmacked over the rudeness of some of those complainers. I think @Lexulous and @sakamvari and the team have done a great job not only of trouble-shooting but in maintaining a calm and polite manner.

I've been asked by another player to request that the games sound be on by default instead of having to turn it on each time they refresh. I haven't found it goes off, myself, but they say it happens to them.

@gimmeadeal There's an icon of a microphone in the upper right of the lobby chat. Clicking it will turn off the bingo recitations.

@mapmakere Both are back now, and wider than before. Thanks @lexulous!

Bouquets:
1)the down arrow when posting on the righthand edge.
2) The return of pm'ing.
3) The clearer new font

@betterlate1-0 Idk who the clowns are, but how can anyone have made it so she can't see the chat there?

@betterlate1-0 Because they are unable to type in here, unverified email problem.

G'morning @lexulous, I notice the people on one's friends' list aren't at the top of the players list today. Is that a temporary glitch? It's been handy to find them there for games.
Also, I've been meaning to say big thanks for the 'resume game' thing that happens after a refresh or brief disconnect.

@betterlate1-0 ...which has nothing to do with my question.

Currently, the person who arrives first sees a chat tab for anyone they have friended as they arrive in the lobby. Can that be changed so the tabs show regardless of who arrives first?

@roymccoy OK, the aesthetics of the tile shape and colour of the arrow are a matter of opinion, they don't affect the play of the game or solve some 'actual problem.' Yet you want them changed, despite asking them not to change anything unless it 'solves some actual problem.'

@hopeful12 Because the old format depended on Flash, a programme which is no longer available.

@roymccoy Your second-last para contradicts your first one. Or maybe you think it's ok if it's you who's asking for the changes others would consider unimportant.

@roymccoy Wow, this defines 'picayune.'

@thatguythere202 Guy, Im sorry I can only upvote that once.

@foxyvonbeerloff separating the reds from the white of course.

@sparks One could.

Hi @Lexulous, some years ago, if someone in the lobby used a word on the 'banned' list in convo, it was replaced with a dot. Now the whole post doesn't show. It makes following some conversations challenging.
Any chance you can give us back that dot to replace the word?
Thanks.

@suschwager Often if you post a question or problem in the lobby, someone will try to troubleshoot with you.
