I've noticed when you joined a room owned by someone else, and they give you permission to draw, you only had permission for the duration of that stay, because when you joined again, you had to regain it. I do not know if that is intentional, or a part of how that permission system works.
MICK SAYS: We will be monitoring how well this works as it is now. The additional resources needed to keep these permissions persistent may not outway the benefits.

I've also noticed the fill tool would continue to draw after you had finished your strokes, but that had only occured maybe once or twice.
MICK SAYS: We hope to have fixed this issue.

When I made a room, and eye-dropped a blue, it worked fine.  However, when I went to another room, switched to black at a less than 50% transparency, then tried to eye-drop that shade, it gave me the blue I had initially eye- dropped from the first room. 
MICK SAYS: We hope to have fixed this issue.

The box line tool works, but the 1st thickness gives you the same thickness as the 2nd thickness, only at a lower transparency.  I tested the other tools to be sure, and it seems to only be that problem with the box tool.
MICK SAYS: This is a known issue that we will further investigate a solution.

if a mod turns a mod's drawing on or off it leaved the mod with a regular drawing user and the M is gone a new bug i just found out ^^ but if you switch to a different room and come back it goes back to normal.

ok on player made rooms if you are a mod and you make a room you leave it and a friend joins it it says mod  the red m is next to them but they don't have any powers as a mod unless i change them and also if you make them able to draw and leave the room and come back it says there a mod but with no powers still.

When We clear, Someothers and myself, can still see the old drawing, while others see just a plain canvas. It gets very annoying Dx

when yiou start lagging, and then you refresh it right..i did that to v.2
and i STILL lagged..i tryed it many times and it didn't work =_=

The Undo button didnt work, and i have a M next to me name:/

some people have Ms next to their names in permanent version, and when you zoom in & you're drawing in the corner, the lil "drawchat v.02" covers it. i was drawing something in that corner then zoomed in, and i couldnt see it very well.

Don't judge DCv2 NOW... judge it when the glitches are fixed!
question..
when all mods leave a room that needs their permission to draw, what happens? when you make somebody a mod, they leave the room & come back, they no longer have mod status. what if the main mod leaves and all the mods leave, too, but one person without drawing permission stays?

suggestion: be able to select what the other people can do when made mod.
like, lets say you're the Main Mod (MM)
MM: press M1 (minimod 1) 's name, select "Become mod"
check box comes up with selections
(  ) undo room
(X) drawing permission
(X) Kick
(  ) undo person's strokes

So, M1 can now give drawing permission and kick, however M1 cannot undo room strokes and undo a specific person's strokes. get it?

The Welcome to the lounge page is staying on top while the lounge tries to draw (very slowly!) whatever has been drawn on there. I try to go to another room but it won't let me.  I have been on before when it wasn't so bad, still loading slowly but I could  go to another room and the room would load, but this time it's really slow loading. It would probably take 1/2 hour to load the picture. I tried logging off and entering back a few times with no luck. I'll try back later. hopefully you can fix this, thanks! :>)

MICK SAYS: This was a temporary bug that should be fixed now.

Performance is one thing we continue to monitor. Lag has been improved for many people and others have reported lag issues like yourself.

The biggest contributor to this is most likely just the fact that we have a much bigger canvas, and more CPU/memory may be required to render drawings on the larger canvas size (graphics card is very important also).  While we have done many optimizations to improve things, it is likely that the minimum computer requirements for am optimal experience may have increased.

We will keep monitoring and finding ways to improve performance and think of ways to improve things for slower computer.

If You notice any more patterns of exactly when you notice lag occurs and when it does not (if there are lots of people in the room, lots of people in drawchat, etc. please keep making notes and report your findings. I do know that the airbrush tool is one of the biggest resource hogs, so a drawing with lots of airbrush may cause more lag than one with less airbrush.

I appreciate everyone reporting these things - it helps us improve and we can't fix things if we don't know they're broken

Just got thrown out again and it will not let me back in. Says user name already taken. I created room.. Sniffle, sniffle!

The timeout for "username taken" issues has been reduced to 15mins, so you should only have to wait 15mins before you can log back in again. Unfortunately, we do not have a solution to this "username taken" yet despite having had several discussions with the creators of the DrawChat server software company.
