Chat Problems/Snoozing

Post by subs5
Today my Waze chat has gone down hard.
I have refreshed, rebooted, gone invisibile/gone back to visible, even uninstalled and reinstalled chrome, installed firefox and still crickets on chat. I can PM users that I know and they say I show up as snoozing
What do I need to do to get back into the action? Any suggestions?
I had looked at adding on the chat add on mentioned in the wiki, but the link to the website said can't download.
I guess I am looking for a better troubleshooter than the wiki which isn't too much of a help in this situation
Thanks in advance

Disable all extensions including tampermonkey and see if the problem persists. Though, using a different browser should take care of that situation. Sometimes, the server keeps your connection but doesn't allow communication due to some bug that's hard to reproduce and therefore fix. I've heard of this issue before and it seems that once the chat server resets all connections, you're "allowed" back in.

I've also been having this same problem for a couple weeks. I'm think it's a server-side issue since I've had no luck with different browsers and computers.

This is an issue that will never end. The WME Chat should be completely reinvented!!!

If you're using Chat add-on, create a new private room (name it whatever you want). Go into that room, type anything in the text box and hit enter. Then, go back to the US room.
