In the Tavern I noticed the gravatars not becoming opaque after a while:

enter image description here

Inspection of the html dom revealed this inside the <li> of balpha:

<span class="data">
  <span class="last-activity-time">b13dce689732844e6590da37048f0eaf</span>
</span>

Not sure why the Gravatar id of balpha is there because for others that same html fragment shows:

<span class="data">
    <span class="last-activity-time">1411749249</span>
</span>

This is observed on IE11 and confirmed on Firefox and Chrome (dev channel).

I expect this can be repro-ed by only entering a room but not do any activity as the chat script calls sidebarActivity in the enter function with the email_hash but on the activity filter with now().

Can this be fixed? It makes chat near impossible to use ;-)

    Is that why you blurred your gravatar rene? Don't you trust the blurring algorithm any longer? – Infinite Recursion Sep 26 '14 at 19:05
  • I expect that this is part of the moderator conspiracy to keep tabs on us, considering all the people not being blurred have diamonds. – Josh Darnell Sep 26 '14 at 19:10
  • Obviously, when Bart is not in the Tavern, bugs are happening. – Shadow Wizard is Vaccinating Sep 27 '14 at 6:40

Ooops, nice catch and absolutely correct analysis. Fixed.

  • Just FYI: something is off in that same area: i.stack.imgur.com/QQ2zv.png I didn't check if it is the same root-cause. – rene May 2 '18 at 15:19
  • It looks like it is related to when SE staff goes through the chat transcript. Basically when you see a blurred avatar of an SE employee as shown you know you're in for trouble. – rene May 2 '18 at 15:35
