Real-time updates
New messages now arrive instantly, making conversations faster and more reliable.
Send and read status
You can now see the status of each message you send: a clock means it is being sent, one check mark means it has been sent, and two mean the other person has read it.
Saved drafts
Unfinished messages are saved in each conversation. You can switch to another chat and return to your draft later.
Countdown timer
If you send messages too quickly, a timer shows how long you need to wait before sending another one.
Redesigned messaging page
On desktop, the conversation list and your open chat now fill the page, making it easier to choose who to talk to and read your messages. On mobile, the list and the conversation appear on separate screens to give you more room to chat.
Pick up where you left off
When you return to a conversation, your reading position is preserved. You can carry on reading without searching for the last message you read.
Find conversations by username
We have improved search to make it easier to find the conversation you need.
Reconnecting
If your connection drops, the chat shows the connection status. Messages update automatically once you are back online. If a message could not be confirmed as sent, you can retry sending it.
Other changes
Page navigation
We have added smooth transitions between sections of the site. Pages load faster, and getting around is easier.
Account suspension screen
The suspension screen now shows the reason your account was suspended and lets you sign out.
Game icons
Game icons now have a consistent look and respond to hovering in the same way across the site.
Notification language
Emails about new messages and expired listings now correctly use your selected language.
