Issue #73 resolved

antiaverage created an issue 2017-02-20

Currently we use "let" to declare a variable which is unsupported in ES5 and below. This causes older browsers which do not support ES2015 and newer to fail to load chat.

We have three options: * Force users to upgrade browsers * Refactor to use ES5 only * Introduce Babel

My recommendation is to retain backwards compatibility and refactor to use ES5 for now

I agree that retaining backwards compatibility is the best option. I will take this and work on it now.
