Feedback:

**Urgent**

- When I post message is shows up, but second message does not render. Only way to see it is do a screen refresh.

```plaintext
_ember_jquery-863361d….js:26009Error: Property set failed: object in path "currentTopic.presence.sam" could not be found or was destroyed.

```

**High**

- It is critical to see who is online in chat. needs a box that shows who is in the chat room.

**Medium**

- Show “who is typing”
- collapsing has too much margin.

```plaintext
one
two
three

```

Should render same as:

```plaintext
one [enter]
two [enter]
three [enter]

```

- `1m` styling is too strong. Should be a lighter grey, not black. Consider moving it to the left like slack:

- Personally I think the use of local times in Slack is better than `1m`, `1h` etc.

- Add a way to bookmark a message and reply directly to a message

- Start thinking about “moving out of chat” … select N messages and “copy it into a new topic” or something like that.
