Look for a "REGISTER" button at the bottom-right of the login screen.

What? What if someone else registered the name "Bloodshadow" there and pretended to be me?! Good thing I registered my own name before a random troll did.
To be or not to be, I can do both at once. Go learn quantum mechanics, n00b.

ya, that could cause some issues. i like the chat where your forum account and chat account were connected
my milkshake brings all the boys to the yard and they're like "its better than yours" damn right, its better than yours! i can teach you but i'd have to charge!

It may be possible to bridge the databases. But this depends on how the registration information is stored and retrieved in the chat script.

It's possible. I even know how to do it.

But after thinking about it, I probably won't bridge the two. This way we are not forcing the chat people to make a forum account. Also when you deal with databases, there's always a risk of monumental failure. I just don't see the point in risking it because the current system works just fine.

Identity theft is not a problem because of IP addresses. And frankly, I find it very unlikely that we would have tons of people trying to be Bloodshadow in chat. :)

What if people were trying to be you, or Zanz?!

Oh, wait.. both of those names are taken already.

Never mind.

P.s. I can see the IP's too

Yeah, I agree with Bloodshadow. What if someone takes another person's name and pretends the be that person?

I could go to Kongregate forums right now, register with someone else's name and there would be nothing he/she could do about it.

Difference here is that on this chat I can check the IP and fix the problem.

Anyone who wants to keep their name should go register it. It's as simple as that.
