Turns out the hangout wasnt completely refreshing when people left and new people joined. Joe March and I were trapped in a frightening twilight zone-esque limbo, where we could see no one and hear no one and everyone could see us and read what we wrote in chat but not hear us or speak to us.
The solution was for everyone else to leave the hangout and pop back in which seemed to fix the problem.
Long story short... The hangout was momentarily possessed by Zuul. Now it's not.
please respect the fact that there are limited hangout spaces. if you're going to be playing games while in the hangout, you're taking up a space that someone else could be using.
we will start blocking/banning people who do this.
No it was to me, I was playing fallout, and I stepped out, when I came back I was banned, I have no hard feelings because I understand the reason just give me a warning next time please.
David, we tried talking to you for 20minutes asking you to respond. You ignored us, so the kick was initiated. You're not banned though, you were just kicked.
There are no hard feelings, we just wanted to free up space for someone who wanted to work. You are welcome back in anytime
Apparently someone was posting RedTube links earlier today.
Not only could it offend some people, it also sets a bad example and reflects badly on yourself and others.

Just like to apologise about my drunk housemates last night, they were curious about the people I talk to online all the time, I realise its a place people come to do work so just wanted to say sorry to those it might have disrupted :x
I hope the rest enjoyed it heh
A few people have asked me about learning particle FX. would anyone be interested in a weekly tutorial session on the hangout? sadly the limit would be 10 (blame google) but I would record it too

I'm still having the same issue with lag in 3DS Max, as soon as I start screensharing. Without it, my feed runs smoothly and same with navigating in Max, however as soon as I activate screenshare, moving around in the viewport gets very chunky, just like looking at a bad stream. Any ideas or tips to fix this?
I had hoped getting a new graphic card would have helped, got a GeForce GTX 660 Ti now, got 8 GB Ram and an Intel Core i7-2600K 3.40GHz processer. It should be good enough to pull Max and screenshare,right?
I actually selected Max to screenshare, as I thought it was better for the program focus only on that, but I just tested it with the whole desktop and it works smooooothly. Cheers! Can finally use hangout for something, just forgot all about them because of this issue.

This is the new master hangout that will hopefully hold more (thanks Gir)
A: New Polycount 15 Master
This is the older one that was the previous master. It is still active, so we can use it in case we get over 15 people wanting to join
B: Old Polycount 10 Master *Now Secondary Overflow
It is only allowing 10 in at a time.

I'm down.
Anyone having the same issues? Reinstalling the plugin doesn't help.

i've not had any good experiences sharing a single program so i usually just share the entire screen it's open on.
