RE: New IRC Chatroom

Unread post by gaggedutopia »

As of this week we now have a brand new shiny IRC chatroom for all of us to enjoy. For those of you who are veterans of the previous chatroom there are some great improvements such as multiple rooms, private chat, faster response and a lot more.

For those of you new to chatrooms we have a very easy to use web version. No software needed to install. To open, click that Chat link in the upper right menu bar.

For those of you familiar with IRC already, find us here: irc://irc.boundforum.com

If the web based chat is not for you, I highly recommend Y-Chat (X-Chat 2) for Windows. It is easy to use and has a lot of great features that make chatting an even more enjoyable. You can download it here: http://www.silverex.org/download/

Running a Mac or Linux? JIRCII is a great JAVA based client that supports all platforms. You can download it here: http://www.oldschoolirc.com/

Of course, if you need help feel free to pop in and ask! I'll update this announcement from time to time with new information and commands.

* Handy Chat Commands *

/nick <username> :: This will change your username
/me <message> :: Will display message like, "GU waves"
/msg <username> <message> :: sends a private message

I'm just wondering... is there no sound with the new chat? No little beep to let you know if someone comes in or if someone says something?

There is no sound in the web client. You can download your own IRC client which can be customized to whatever you want however.

I keep getting kicked from the channel :/


--edit
I hate to tell people how to run things, but clearly someone doesn't know how IRC works...

Banning people for being idle when no one else is on is not a good way to run an IRC channel/network

_every_ other irc channel/network I'm on has people (like me) that have a server that is connected to IRC 24/7/365

Well - this is odd. I was in chat a hour or so ago and it was all fine. Now when I go in it is completely empty. No MistressZoe and I don't appear in the user list. Nothing I type appears in the chat.Does it need a reboot?Guy

In a word atm yes...

GU and myself (and Zoe) are there, we can see folk trying to get in and exiting and GU is doing his best to get things sorted. Please be patient.

It went VERY quiet for a while then broke, GU fixed it but it continued to stay quiet... and Woo, you're the first to report it from the forum membership... so I guess its a case of if the demand is non existent and those that try it don't report glitches then unfortunately we run the real risk of losing the chat function altogether. If you want it reinstated I suggest you ask GU (nicely) and make a point of using it.

Sounds old... but...
Does the chat still work???
I check the "irc://irc.boundforum.com/" but I get,
"The webpage cannot be displayed"
When I hit "chat" another failure...
I know that on a small site like this, there may at most be 2 or 3 people on line at a time...

I'm asking because I thought up an idea that could revive the char room idea...
Anyone watch "The Legend of Korra" ???
In the beginning of the story they had arena matches, 3 on 3...
My idea would be something like that, but 1 on 1...
Over on boundanna, I have more of a description of the idea...
http://forum.boundanna.net/board/viewto ... =28&t=8866
All advice is checked, re-checked and verified to be questionable...
Don't ask, we both wont understand the answer...

The link only shows in the top bar when you're not logged in- login and it disappears. It doesn't seem to work anyway, I have the impression it was quietly shut down about 2 years ago due to low or no activity.

As you can see, with some exceptions, this forum moves at a rather stately pace (meaning slow). But go ahead and post away- someone will reply... eventually... maybe. No rush here! :D

Maybe most members here are too shy to say anything. :gag:
