I'm pretty sure I didn't change any settings. I get a message 'could not connect to chat server' and cancel|reconnect options. Regardless of which I select, I end up in offline mode, and the popup message/choice comes often. I also can't see chats. This has been going on for several hours.

I'm done for the night, this is aggravating.

If you have played for awhile, you should be aware that the chat server sometimes goes down for several hours. It is seldom down for more than one night and since you can still play your turns, what is there to be upset about?

By the way, both Chat Server and Game Server are always stable until I start changing them.

I've been a registered player for a few months. Didn't realize the chat server was separate. Whats to be upset about is the constant popup that says reconnect or cancel every 30 seconds while in a game. Even though I specifically uncheck the game server messages it still complains at me.

Its not upsetting as much as annoying and distracting.

Yes, this would be a pain but you can fix this by changing the tab in the profile section to "connect manually" When things are up and running again you can always change it back and this will only effect the chat and not the actual game.
