While auto show is ticked [v], I don't see
any Chat-Veteran- or Chat-Global messages appearing anymore.
There seems to be a 180 sec. timeout: I can't fix that for my self - any ideas!?
This happens apparently since mid-December 2021, when they removed the old controls.

Win 10 Pro latest updated,
We are having the same chat problem.
here is our log.txt. Please help, thank you.
Thanks for the log.txt.
It shows you trying to connect to your group channel:
game.application.GameApplication: {0} GROUP CHAT CHANNEL:
game.application.GameApplication: {0} BOINC says connect to: irc.fold.it:6667
game.application.GameApplication: {0} Using nick: PLMCHB2203G3AY202122S2
Then a little later in the log, there's an error:
game.application.IRCThread: {0} Notice : Nick 0e41e90e1f466e0 isn't registered.
It's not clear exactly what's happening here. The chat server has some kind of connection cache, and sometimes you'll see letters and number in place of your IRC nickname. But "0e41e90e1f466e0" looks different than the usual type of cache id.
