Gems Popping Up

Oh, those gems! Not only are they cool, but the are valuable because you can cash them in for Rocket Points. Now we've made it even more fun to collect gems. When you are hanging out in any room, you may see a gem pop up in a random location on the screen. The first user to click on the gem will get it. So keep your eyes open, mouse finger ready, and click on those gems!

Super Chat

We've made a number of really cool improvements to RocketOn chat.

At your request, we've implemented a chat log which records all of the public chat in a room. If you miss a comment from your friend, you can now scroll through the log to see what they've said. You can open the log at any time by clicking on the chat log icon in the nav bar.

To make it easier to tell people apart when chatting, we've color coded the user names that appear in the chat dialog box, so you can easily tell if the person chatting is a friend or not.

URLs are now clickable within chat - so if you find a site you like and type it into your chat, it is a live link that can be clicked on by everyone that views it.
