Thank you!

It won't let me sign into the lounge/chat here, it says 'authentication failed'. But I know that's my password and I'm logged into the site. I'll let you know if it starts working.

The lounge (chat client) username is your antiextremes username and your lounge password is in your ae preferences, it's called "IRC client password". If you changed that IRC password that would break things. We're still getting the integration dialed in. This is what d3rr says

Hopefully that gets it working!

No bueno, I tried logging out and out back in, then copy/pasting the password in my preferences. Still no luck, I'll let you know if it starts working.

Ah, dang! /u/d3rr would be interested in this

As a last-measure workaround, you can create another account if you wish. It should work then.

Are you sure you got all the digits in your password? It goes on a bit longer than the box itself is

That could be it, I'm on mobile. I'll try it later tonight or tomorrow when I can get to my laptop and let you know how it goes.

Sorry for the tech hassle. If you change your IRC username in preferences, sidebar chat will start working again. Unfortunately other chats will be still be broken.

Thanks d3rr and u/magnora7 for all the help. I'm currently getting ready to head out, but I'll change the IRC username later tonight or tomorrow and let you know how it goes. Chat is one of the things I'm most excited for with this site. Thank you both!
