PostPosted: Fri, 11th Feb 2011 04:24    Post subject: IRC Interest
Alot of us Updaters have been hanging out in IRC lately, and myself, [mrt], Nalo are curious as to what the interest in IRC is within the forum. The current location at #nforce is anti-forum for some reason, so if interest is high enough we would provide another channel likely within #Efnet as it seems people are unwilling to switch to a better network Razz

Adding a poll, if you are not/interesting in hanging out and chatting with your fellow humpers on the weekends or such, please vote yay or nay. We'd like to start things up within a week or two, but we'll wait for the majority of voters to get their opinion in.

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
I would like to mention that if this happens, the IRC channel would be moderated by those that are responsible enough to handle that without going kickban frenzy. Getting into arguements on IRC can get a bit heated, so it's definately no something we want to see, just a more fun place to talk with our fellow humpers. When you can talk back at people that fast, arguements turn into caps lock matches real fast, those eventually dissolve into just calling each other terrible names, so some moderation will be required .. if you have ideas for who you'd like to see do this, feel free to include it.

If glottis isn't in the new channel, who will hate on *insertswearwordorinsulthere*psilon then?
I mean the guy is more persistant than a catholic priest, kinda hard to improve upon isn't it.

I'd tell you to stop ignoring my instructions if your name wasn't red Razz


I think without the crowd within #nforce trolling our forum users as soon as they arrive, we could have a really pleasant experience. Myself, Mrt, Nalo, or Syco is always there and ready to talk to people, and could be very fun. You also have the option for private chat to have discussions with your best of humpers.

Lol Inz, gotta find a decent channel then mate, if you hit the good ones you'll rarely need to go all night. Unless you had the awesome VIP access though you could only set up like 5/114141000 .rar files to download at once ;(

Not set up too well yet, I'll let everyone know the details once we get it ready, #nforce has gottis and his forum hating gang, and #NFOHump..no one knows who those people are..

Will provide more details once the polls have finished Smile

Mind you this was YEARS back, when an ISDN was considered a fast connection. Even then I thought rip's sucked and I had to have ISOs so it usually meant having to leave them queued overnight. And then wake up in the morning and find out the download had been interrupted at 9% for whatever reason.

Good times. Laughing

So camping in #nforce and #nfohump now, most action comes from people who ping out and auto reconnect. Most names are unknown but seems there are real women on the internets (if I have to belief the names). But yeah as helvete already said: Who are these people. Confused

I have been pushing implementing a JIRC-esque page onto this site so we can all chat in real time. This would be a logical first step towards doing this I guess..

Yeah could work nicely but I think that the whole board needs an overhaul. Upgrade phpbb, so for example we can embed videos.

I think the women ones are bots. They live there. Never heard a peep from them.

Sorry been passed out pretty good,

The current rooms won't really do, as you can see they are quite dead, so this poll is just to determine the interest so that we can set it up with a better room location if needed.

Horrordee may be right that a java based chat would be a great place to start, but figured we can just normal IRC until that time, the java chat just has to connect to the server whenever that gets going Smile

I am there now. Nothing is happening.

I am hungry, have no food, and I am bored. I am also in bad mood. AND if that isn't bad enough I am not impressed with MEN at the moment.

Nah the only person who's talking (every now and then) is Glottis, and it's usually about some console game...
