What's with the chat box?
The damn thing continues to expand each and every time I get an IM. Then it opens really wide. I have to spend time all day long fussing with this box on top of the frequent crashes and everything else that's been going wrong since last update.
Anyone else having this problem and can you do anything about it? Although I seriously doubt it.
Thanks

Its getting like the old DOS style games where you could only see a peep hole of the playing feild for damn 'information' boxes/windows. I lowered the scale of the UI to gain greater control of the screen space, but then I do have a monitor that has 1600x1200 resolution.

Yes, I'm also experiencing the "Monster IM Window That Ate My Screen" syndrome.
I host a daily morning show and take requests. Within 15 minutes of opening the show the IM window is stretched across the top of the screen and I amd constantly fiddling with it so I can see. Of course, the next IM, and zap - back to 2/3 of the top of my screen. I'm waiting for it to start expanding down so it can be REALLY fun.  I'd report it as a bug, but maybe it's a feature?!?  _____________________

I'm having the same problem. Each time I resize it and either receive a new IM or close an IM box it expands again. Of course made more irritating by the IM reopen bug - anyone else remember the good old days when once you closed a session it would not reopen automatically until you relogged? of course this has supposedly been fixed with every update since 1.15
