@Arkhaion Thanks.

- Include your browser and version.
Google Chrome, Version 40.0.2214.115 m
- Time problem occurred.
February 26th, around 4:30PM.
- A detailed description of what happened. What section were you on? What were you doing? What were you trying to do?
I was trying to log back into chat when this happened. I reloaded the page, and the screen was still like that. Only when I switched to Firefox was I able to actually use chat. When I was on my mom's laptop using Google Chrome, chat was fine. Only when I'm on my computer does chat act up and do that.
- Your operating system.
Windows 7.

@AdrianMoon ->> Most likely, the issue is with the browser. You can try refreshing the cache by pressing ctrl + F5.

My review count says that I've done 184 reviews but then I look at the reviews I did on my wall and it says I've done 182. *These numbers will change because I'm doing reviews a lot lately.

So I've lost my chatbar. My chat is also taking up the full amount of the browser window. Just started today and I have no idea what's going on.

My zoom's on normal. I have cleared my cache for the past week. It's still not there.

I'm on Chrome version 41.0.2272.76 (64-bit), Mac OS 10.9.5

EDIT- On a hunch, I turned my chatbar on for mobile. It showed up. So it appears YWS thinks I'm on mobile, when I'm on my computer.

Yeah! I also lost my chat bar.

My Chrome verison is Version 41.0.2272.76 m

Same as above, no chat bar. Rosey, I tried what you did, but no dice - however, when I went back and disabled mobile, it did appear (as if logged out, which I had been) as just the speech bubble, but then disappeared when the page redirected to the homepage.

I'm on my chromebook, chrome version 41.0.2272.76.

REDACTED

My chat bar isn't showing up either! For some reason when I logged in it just completely wasn't there! I've been refreshing and it just won't show up.

So I don't really use chatbar much, but when I noticed all these bug reports on Chrome I figured I'd check to see if mine was working. It was, and I'm currently running version 40.0.2214.115 m. I'll update this when I update Chrome to see if chatbar is still working.

EDIT: Now using 41.0.2272.76 m on Windows 7 and as expected, I no longer see the chatbar (zoom is normal).

@KatyaElefant I'm experiencing something close to your problem.

I'm using Chrome, but I don't know the version. Latest, I believe. I have a PC with windows 7.

This occurred today.

I was checking out the leader boards and I noticed it said I had done 40 reviews on the All Time board, but I knew I had done 42. I went here, saw KatyaElefant's post, checked on my review page on my profile and got 41. This isn't urgent, Nate, so don't feel rushed to get back at me.

@TigersMoon, @KatyaElephant if I remember rightly, it's probably because you posted in forums that used to count as "reviewable" forums. Quite a few of the older members have the same thing going on.

I think I've got it right?

Chat bar show now be fixed on Chrome -- thanks all for reporting the issue and including the version number of the browser!

Re: review counts ->> Review counts are going to differ -- it's not a bug, it's expected. If you're an older member (pre-2012), it's because the way a review is counted has changed over time. If you're a newer member (2012 - present), then it's probably because a review of yours was deleted. The review count you see next to your avatar is a constant, fixed number -- it only increases and never decreases. On the other hand, the reviews listed in the reviews tab of your profile are changeable. Some get deleted, others get edited, etc.

Thanks Nate!
