Alright I have it running as a pop up now.
Suggestions thoughts?
If you do not like it - why? This is just a test, if everyone hates it we will go back to the old way. I left the code on the website but turned it into a comment so I can easily put XAT back on the forums. But I want to know your thoughts. There is a lot I can do with the window which I will get to later, like making its size customizable and adding more options on top and what not if these are some of the complaints.
The point of this is so XAT is always on your screen while on the forums and you can easily navagate to other pages without losing the window.
The complaint should not be 'I don't like change.' ....

The sky is the limit with this. I could embed XAT onto a new webage, create a new background and make the thing look fancy, and without all the extra junk XAT has and make that the pop up.

Fix it, please put it back on the main page. I have to access it at work. I don't need popups lol.

Why did you not bring this concern up earlier when I first started this thread? Did you not understand what this entailed? It kind of bothers me that you did not bring this concern up earlier. Pop ups wont make a difference at work, its just another webpage.

I constantly refresh the main page and close it so my boss, who's office is 10 feet behind me can't see it. Plus every time I come back to the page another pop up happens. So no I didn't know it would be more annoying than missing a pc once in awhile.

I've actually been trying to find HTML code to stop it from reappearing like you mentioned, I believe it is possible to have it only appear once, and until you X out of XAT it will not re-open it when you visit the main page.
I have made it more eye appealing now too by putting it on it's own webpage.

I don't care if you can fix that, it's as annoying if not more annoying than before please fix.

Almighty king dejota my bad for not going by your wishes.....
I would perfer real criticism than what i've heard so far which is basicly 'its annoying, it sucks, it blows' but no reasons to back it up.
The only thing Dejota said was that a pop up is another window he has to hide from his boss.
Dejota you make rule changes all the time and ppl get pissed off at them but you say tough. Well this is my change and I want real reasons by more than one person, reasons that I can do nothing to compensate for before I change it back. Because no one really voiced disproval of this earlier when I said I might look into it as it would take some time to figure it out. No one was to vocal about disliking this so I spent time for the league and figured out how to do it. Now i'm getting shit for it, no real explainations, it seems like you are all afraid of change.

I personally think that its annoying and doesn't really serve a purpose since it refreshes anyway. Don't want to sound harsh about it or anything I just thought that it was fine the way it was.
