Re: Forum Chat Topic
There is a notification sound that plays if someone mentions your name while you're in another window (not sure about tab, yet) but it's a pretty generic click that isn't particularly obvious.
I checked in the settings (the gear icon up top), and it turns out there was an option for desktop notifications, so maybe that's closer to what you're looking for? I haven't tested it because the option apparently disappeared when I went back to it later, and hasn't reappeared yet, but it might be worth a try.
Finally, Kiwi rejects new connections if too many people join too quickly. (As MK pointed out, this is likely an anti-DoS attack measure.) This means you may receive a "(Session limit exceeded)" message and be unable to connect for a few minutes if multiple people have joined chat immediately before you. If the problem persists, please let us know- you may wish to invest in a downloadable client or use the mibbit link in the meantime.
The maximum join rate without refused connections seems to be about one join every ~2 minutes, so this should not be a huge issue unless people spamjoin the chat.
EDIT: All that strikethrough text is totally wrong, apparently
