The chat feature facilitates sharing sequences, receiving feedback, and engaging in general discussions with the Online Sequencer community.
History
The chat was added in a major website update in November 2013, based on code originally written for Jacob_'s game making website Buildism from 3 years earlier. At first it was possible to chat with any username without making an account, but this was quickly changed after an entire class of middle school students joined the chat, with expected results.
