IRC Chat

[RedVexHK]

I'm hoping this is possible... for now I'm not even home and won't be till Monday so I can't set one up. However I was wondering what the intrest would be and if it's permitted.. to post an IRC address for Nexus members to connect to an IRC chat room on a selected server for the purposes of using as temporary chat.. maybe even permanent if it proves successful in place of the now offline Nexus chat bar.

 

If this is completely disallowed I'll not mention it again.. if it's permitted I'd be willing to set one up and post the particulars.

 

Thank you to everyone in advance who posts interested or not.

Considering how a chat room that didn't require any form of installations or setting up to do was near dead, I suppose an IRC channel would be even more deserted. :/

 

I would like to see a channel though, I've always been on IRC for the past 10 years. It just totally negates any need for all this social networking mumbo jumbo stuff and IM programs... there's like a new facebook/twitter/something every year.

 

Err... anyway, enough promoting irc. ;)

 

Which network were you thinking of using? Personally I would choose rizon.net as you can get free BNCs there which would be very useful for people to have. With BNCs you could catch up on any convos in the channel while you were offline, plus the channel would seem a lot more inviting and in use due to the BNC taking up your spot when you go offline. A lot better than looking at a room that says "current users online: 1".

That actually sounds quite good.. as for a service choice.. I've been away from home for a few weeks and will be back FINALLY tomorrow.. P.S. it's really not fun moving boxes and stuff in 86-89 F weather with 90% humidity if it wasn't soo dirty and dusty where I was working.. I'd have worn a bathing suit.

Anyways.. as for the service.. I'd be very willing to accept suggestions. I have a few already in mind.. but none of them are set in stone. Anything offered that seems worthwhile is worth a try.
