Can't tell if chat works

I've been trying to use the chat link for the last couple days, and can't tell if it only works when multiple people are on or what, but by all accounts I can connect, but it's only me, and if I try to send text nothing happens.  Server commands (whois, help, join, connect) all seem to work, so i -think- it's up

[Like Ra]

Oh, thanks for the head up! The chat was broken after the last reboot. Fixed now!

Ah, yes, everything is different, and it looks like it's working now ... aside from being the only one in there, obviously =P
