[color=#000000ost_uid0]Katy, IRC is tricky and silly... Try hard enough, and you`ll get there!

Hmm... if everyone agrees, I do officially recommend Saturday for the official day for crazy 5MV chat! 18:00 GMT? Give or take a few hours...

And yes, the occasional NC-17 atmosphere... Or as Nan or Sa`ar put it, [iost_uid0]5MV: After Dark[/iost_uid0]. Good thing Cat turned 18 today, [/colorost_uid0]

[Nan]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Do you use Trillian, Katy? If so, I could guide you through setup fairly easily.[/colorost_uid0]

[Katy Jane]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]I didn't know i needed a client, i was just trying to get the server to work as a url like java chat *blush*. Thanks to Cat i figured out what was wrong and downloaded trillian, i think i've got it figured out now. Spent some time in there this afternoon. Great fun

Infact i'm in there now... all alone :crying: [/colorost_uid0]

[Naki]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]that last IRC was insane and pointless, damn i can't wait for the next one![/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]How the hell do you get this thing to work? I can't make heads nor tails of it.[/colorost_uid0]

[Katy Jane]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Sorry Neo, i had to reboot and i couldn't seem to get back on

Edit: all better![/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]What, trillian?[/colorost_uid0]

[catalina_marina]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Ask Sa'ar -- He seems to know everything about it, even though he has never seen the thing.

I'm still kinda confused about that.[/colorost_uid0]

[Nan]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]I can't connect to the server anymore. [/colorost_uid0]

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]I can get on MSN and AIM with it alright, but I can't make heads nor tails of the IRC config screen. What do all those things mean? How do I actually connect?[/colorost_uid0]

[Celeste]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Alright, I have Trillian Pro so I don't know how different it is, but we'll see. What you want to do is in the server box type irc.dwarfstar.net the port is 6667. Nickname is whatever you want your name to be, then you'll need an alternat nickname, maybe something like "nickname-" User information is what shows up after your hostname and username shows up before the hostname

ie: spots@***.comcast.com Spotted Trill

Spots is my hostname, and Spotted Trill is my user info. All these fields don't mean much of anything. You can put whatever you'd like there, or leave the defaults. After you connect to the server you'll want to open the "Status Window" for IRC. Type in /join #5mv and a new window will open for that channel. Hopefully that clarifies it.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]So, are we all coming on IRC this Saturday (today)? [/colorost_uid0]

[Nan]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Possibly. I can connect again.[/colorost_uid0]

[Nan]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Well, I know I'll never look at squid the same way ever again.[/colorost_uid0]

[Nic Corelli]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Or octopi...

Say hello to Nic, Vampire Octopus Hunter.

Weird thing, IRC... [/colorost_uid0]

[taya17]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Yeah, thanks to [iost_uid0]some[/iost_uid0] people, I'm going to go to bed with the image of giant Croatian octopi crawling around in my head. I so needed that, like I need a good swift kick to my head... [/colorost_uid0]

[Nan]

[bost_uid0]C[/bost_uid0]razy

(That was my thousandth post. Go me! )[/colorost_uid0]

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Okay, I think I've gotten it working.[/colorost_uid0]

[Nic Corelli]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Okay, everyone...

Be there,

(you can be late for an hour or two if you`ll be busy...)[/colorost_uid0]

[PointyHairedJedi]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]I'll certainly try.[/colorost_uid0]
