You Planeteers have been asking for it, and so it’s here. Here’s a live chatroom for Pixar Planeteers!
You will need to have a Pixar Planet forums account and you will need Adobe Flash to be able to log in. To be able to access the chatroom, you must be signed into the forums. If you don’t have Flash installed or it’s incompatible to what you’re using, an AJAX (Javascript) version of the chatroom will be available soon.
To access the chatroom:
Log in if you haven’t done so already.
Next to your avatar on top of the page, there is “view posts since your last visit” and “view your posts”. There used to be “view unanswered posts” but now there is “log into the Pixar Planet Chatroom”. Click on that to be taken to the chatroom.
Wait for the chatroom to load. If it doesn’t, check your computer settings.
Please note that forum rules apply in the chatroom - keep it civilised otherwise you will be kicked or banned. The forums’ moderators & administrators carry the same position and hold the same powers as they do in the chatroom. Chats are logged and checked, so if there is no moderators in the chat, you will be punished if you break the forum rules in the chatroom.
There are two chatrooms: The Planeteers’ Lounge & Everything Pixar. They are pretty self-explanatory - keep the chats to the respective posts.
Happy chatting!
(This post will be updated with more information in the future, including specific chat rules and the like, so check back here once in a while!)

Can I just say, thank you so much Phileas! Wow, ever since you became the admin person for this site, everything is improving at an amazing speed!
I’ve had the pleasure of chatting a little bit in the chatroom already, and will try to log onto it whenever I’m online - not necessarily to chat, but to keep an eye on things every so often as moderator.
Oooh, this is gonna be so great! See you peeps in the chat. =D
Neato. Hopefully it’ll stay active throughout the day, with people in different time zones and such. This is a really good feature, though, so thanks for implementing it!
I will have to get on the chatroom when I get home today. Don’t think it’d be a good idea to get on at school right now. I’m surprised they haven’t blocked PP yet being that they don’t like students getting on forums or blogs!
Sweetness! I noticed this almost immediately after logging in… I can’t wait for some of my favorite members to get online so we can actually talk in real time! After all, I don’t have Skype (I used to on the Vista… before it crashed… ), and not many of my friends here use MSN, sooo, yeah that’ll be cool!
It’ll also be cool to be able to talk to other members that I’m not quite familiar with yet. I can’t wait!
Rachel - hmmm… I don’t know if I can incorporate a feature like that. I’ll look into it.
I’d like to remind everyone that the chatroom is a beta, and is not a final version. There are still many, many bugs to be fixed, and they will get fixed in time. Thanks for your understanding!
