Hey everyone Technology forum aficionados and other interested parties,
I got an IRC chatroom set up for createblog on my server. We used to have one back in the day and it was kind of fun, so I thought I'd try to get it going again. So grab an IRC client and get chattin'! Here's the info:
Server: irc.foonetic.net
Channel: #createblog
If you need directions for connecting, read the thread or just ask. Or read http://www.createblog.com/forums/index.php?s=&showtopic=219488&view=findpost&p=3243961.
Also, NickServ is running on the server, so feel free to register your nick.
OMG Thanks, I knew that something was missing here.
The AIM live chat is...idk..
I dont use AIM
I actually have no clue what that is?
:o
Damn. I suggested this in some topic once. It got shot down immediately.
But we needed this. I'm joining now.
Edit:
i don't get it. what's the difference between this group chat and what we already have?
Its best if we change the server to Dejatoons or LucidChat.
Because seriously, I'm having problems in connecting to your server.
Not everyone uses AIM.
So IRC is best for Chats.
but if you have to download a client isn't it the same thing almost
Not everyone uses IRC.
So AIM is best for Chats.
Well.. AIM is something that slows down my computer (idk why)
I use Neebly as my IRC Client (bye bye mIRC).
Neebly is free
You don't have to download a client. There are tons of Java based online IRC clients, but they're usually pretty laggy.
It's really just going to split up into two chats. Most AIM cbcers probably won't even touch that.
yeah i mean i don't care either way. i just have no clue about IRC or downloading anything for that.
Fine :P
I'll download AIM right now.
But I'm still looking forward to this IRC
lol, sorry aim for me (:
The only way this is going to fly is if someone hosts a Java client...
People, just download ChatZilla. It's a FF addon, and it's an irc client! Woo!
/server ppartment.homeip.net
enter
/join #createblog
enter
enjoy
I get that too. It's the only server I get that on.
Darn
i'd do it but it looks too confusing.
I'm afraid I may mess up my computer.
This is what im doing
/server ppartment.homeip.net
enter
/join #createblog
enter
Not sure how to enable ssl on my client. Ill go look.
Darn. I just downloaded neebly.
I tried that already. No luck. Its probably cause I looked in all the settings but couldnt find anything about ssl.
try this now
/server irc.dejatoons.net
enter
/join #CreateBlog
or simply just go on
http://fantasycore.heliohost.org/tubes.php
Okay, I opened up a port for non-SSL traffic. Here's the info:
Server: ppartment.homeip.net, port 6667 (standard port, so you shouldn't need to specify it)
Channel: #createblog
Woohoo! It works!
Edit:Someone get on!
Step by step instructions on how to get into the IRC chat:
1. Download a IRC client. This is kinda like a IM Program. I installed http://www.neebly.com/.
2. Once you install a client you open it up and in the line where you type, enter
/server ppartment.homeip.net and hit enter.
Once you have connected enter, /join #createblog and hit enter again.
You should be in!
I'll stick with Meebo so I won't have to download Aim.
What's the difference between IRC and AIM?
Just tried it. I like IRC wayyyy better than AIM.
This is nifty, Michael. Thanks for setting it up. I miss old IRC chating in general.
Ok, You guys should be able to enter our channel with no hassle.
Those who dont want to risk the thing with downloading IRC Clients, can just
go to http://fantasycore.heliohost.org
You can enter ppartment.homeip.net from there.
k i has IRC now
Its not connecting?
Okay, I want to get this IRC thing going again.
I'm pretty bored at work and sometimes in the evening, so I'm starting up the CB IRC channel again. Unfortunately, my former roommate doesn't have IRC up and running, so I found a new server to host. The server is:
irc.foonetic.net (on all the usual ports)
Server info is available at http://foonetic.net/. The channel is
#createblog (duh)
foonetic runs all the usual services (NickServ, ChanServ, etc.). More info is available http://foonetic.net/ and http://wiki.foonetic.net/wiki/Main_Page. If you get on and know at least a bit about IRC, I'll give you op status.
Questions? Just ask in this thread, someone'll help you out.
I am in, and only me and mipadi are here.
NEED MORE PEOPLE
Could someone make instructions. Im using a chatzilla.
I did /server irc.foonetic.com and it didnt work.
because it's .net, not .com
Im in.
Someone get in there, I'm bored.
I'm in. I'm using conversation though - it's so easy to use, lol. Probably not the best client, but great for my irc needs. ;P
EDIT - well I gotta go, so I just signed out. ;P
I just use chatzilla btw. It is a firefox add on which I like a lot!
I keep forgetting about this. I'll log on when I get home (maybe) since I still haven't re-installed aim.
I had a hell of a time logging in last night for some reason. Then I realized that the first post might be dated. :x
go go go

CBC is getting annoying & boring.
hi irc
Someone get in there, I'm bored.
^I just left...
I have a free workstation available at work -- I'll try to host a trivia bot of some sort on it.
get in there people!
Let's get this party started (again).
