Chat Bubble Trouble

I missed two opportunities today because of chat bubbles getting in the way.  I wanted to accept a race challenge but before I could accept a chat bubble popped up over the acceptance button and I could not accept.  Someone else got to do the race.  I believe this same thing happened to me twice today.  I was also unable to thank someone for a gift because a chat bubble popped up in the way and by the time it disappeared my friend was gone too.  Next time I will IM her but there is no other way to accept a challenge.  I don't have those races in my Quest Log so I can only do them if someone challenges me.  Rats!

  • It has happened to me too, not the race, but rock messages and other things have been covered by the messages along the left side upper, if you are petting, watering etc,  the message there covers while you may be speaking to a tree or on the other side, if you are using a map destination those bubbles get in the way of what the rock says, or other things.. hard to explain.. i seen it though

  • I think you can accept a race in the chat window now too. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

  • Stoot, I was at a project in Bartola.  I was waiting for the next phase when ssomeone announced that they needed a challenger for the Space race.  i really wanted to do that so as I started to click on it, someone nearby made a comment (not to me) which covered the challenge and made it impossible for me to accept the challenge.  Someone else accepted while I waited for the chat bubble to go away.  This happened twice with race challenges.  Also, someone gave me a hug and as I tried to return it another chat bubble popped up and I could not click on my friend to return the hug.  While I waited for the bubble to disappear, my friend left.  I also had the same thing happen when a pig was telling me about Tii.  A chat bubble popped up over the pig's spiel and i missed part of the story.   All of these things happened in the same location.  I tried to get away from the street spirit but was not fast enough to escape those chat bubbles and then the topper was several sneeze powders followed by sparkle powder - LOL!  At the end of that I left the project as fast as I could.  I hope I get offered some of the new races in my Log soon as I have only two more quests, neither is a race.

    I can't really see a fix for this at projects but it is frustrating.
