#AGN Internet Relay Chatroom
Current Server Address: irc.irchighway.net
Channel: #AGN
The preferred IRC client to use is mIRC. You're not required to register it and it can still be used long after it expires.. Advanced mIRC users may find the mIRC script UPP to be pretty useful. Full of features and goodies.
Newbies: Please read through the following tutorials
mIRC Tutorial
Re: INFO: #AGN Internet Relay Chatroom
Are we required to register our nicknames on the server? And if so, how do we do that? I don't use IRC much, and when I go into chat I usually just go in.
Re: INFO: #AGN Internet Relay Chatroom
No you're not. Just a suggestion.
Re: INFO: #AGN Internet Relay Chatroom
I'm using Mazilla @ the moment, by server you mean the same as network right?
If not, which network should I connect to, here is the list of available networks:
dalnet, efnet, freenode, hybridnet, moznet, quakenet, slashnet, undernet, webbnet
btw. the link 'Poorly Structured mIRC Tutorial' doesn't work anymore.
Re: INFO: #AGN Internet Relay Chatroom
you need to create a new network called 'irc.cyber2k.net'
Re: INFO: #AGN Internet Relay Chatroom
Oke worked, did take a few minutes but I'm in :)

Fixed. I also updated the tutorial on Chat Etiquette.
Re: INFO: #AGN Internet Relay Chatroom
I'm having a little trouble getting into it from MIRC, something with the connection...
anyways, is there a way to access it from a java applet?
Re: INFO: #AGN Internet Relay Chatroom
Re: #AGN Internet Relay Chatroom
Anyone who uses Firefox can get chatzilla. It's a plugin that works with mirc. Here is the link.
A little bit different but kinda cool.

Try 80.198.131.50 (6667)
cyber2k has been down for a while now.
Re: #AGN Internet Relay Chatroom
The new address is irc.thepentagon.org. It's the same network, only the cyber2k domain doesn't work anymore.

deja vu *again* ;)
Re: #AGN Internet Relay Chatroom
Can I still come through the chat or is glitch gonna keep banning me? It's been a while...
Re: #AGN Internet Relay Chatroom
Hm, Breakie-poo how come the IRC channel is such a desolate wasteland?
Everytime I visit in there it's ALWAYS: SB, you, Cowie, and Kryten
*goes on the channel right now*
Yep. Exactly those users!
I say we do a server change and try to get more involved with making it big again. I kinda miss the hellish corruption I got from #AGN back when I was only 16, lol. :V
Re: #AGN Internet Relay Chatroom
Pidgin is by far the simplest program to use ;) (Pidgin = new Gaim)
Re: #AGN Internet Relay Chatroom
Whatsup with chat nowadays? There is no #agn in thepentagon.
Suggestions?
Re: #AGN Internet Relay Chatroom
Bwahaha.
I am joining this evening. Thanks for updating the info, Breaker.
As for the rest of you AGNers...come join us.
Re: #AGN Internet Relay Chatroom
Is that considered to be a double post? ;) (J/k)
Anyway, I might join in on some chat one day. It's not like "So..." isn't pretty much a chat room anyway.
Re: #AGN Internet Relay Chatroom
/me closes "So..." again so that people are forced into joining chat.
Come in, or regret it...
Re: #AGN Internet Relay Chatroom
Breaker, can you edit the link to the tutorial in your first post and add in /forums?
Also, can you edit the server information in the newbie guide that it links to?
Thanks.
Re: #AGN Internet Relay Chatroom
another mirc script that I can personally recommend is NoNameScript
http://www.nnscript.de/
it has a few features that would be more useful to gamers than anyone else, but overall the script is very solid, is very well organized, very easy to get set up, and the development team seems to always be on top of new versions of mIRC and authentication bots.
Re: #AGN Internet Relay Chatroom
You know, this is one of the problems.
I'm in #AGN right now, there are several members online, and no-one's saying anything.
That's how it always seems, and I'm kinda giving up.
Re: #AGN Internet Relay Chatroom
Oh all right. Maybe I'll get miRC and stop by. It's been abou 2 re-formats since I've even had chat, and even then I never used it when I had it. So which is it; thepentagon #agn?
Also the tutorial link is broken.

You were in the room for a total of twenty minutes....what do you expect? Sometimes people have lives to live...or games to play. If we had more people that actually came to chat, there would be more of a chance for conversation. :D
20:07… The_Amaster has joined #AGN
20:08… The_Amaster: woo-hoo, some people are actually in #AGN
20:08… The_Amaster: I've waited a while for this
20:10… The_Amaster: *sighs* assuming nayones paying attention, that is...
20:27… The_Amaster has quit IRC (Client closed connection)
20:48… × Guest7938718 shakes his head
20:48… Guest7938718: ...
20:48… Guest7938718 is now known as Zaphod
20:49… Zaphod: BUT I WAITED THREE MINUTES AND NOBODY TALKED TO MEEH!!! #AGN SUCKS!
And, no...it's not thepentagon anymore, its irchighway.net ;)

Yeah, this basically summarizes the problem. I come in sometimes, if no one's there or active, that's fine; I'll stick around, say something, or leave and come back later. I can't idle all day, but I'm not going to let some dead time discourage me from trying again. When people are active, it's worth it.
Re: #AGN Internet Relay Chatroom
Well, yeah, I wasn't expecting a hive of activity, but after twenty minutes I'd think someone'd say something.

Sorry. I was cleaning my house. ;)
Re: #AGN Internet Relay Chatroom
And I'm just to lazy to download the program in the first place. I'll get around to it eventually....
Re: #AGN Internet Relay Chatroom
Alright, I downloaded it, and apparently I have no idea what I'm doing. It says #agn(cyber2k) but that can't be right...unless it is....then I'm the only one there. :(

Re: #AGN Internet Relay Chatroom
I don't think I'm doing it right. I go to Options, then the servers tab and there's a list of folders and names. Do I go into the IRCHighway folder or what ever then when I click connect it takes me to a window that has a list of channels I just type in #AGN? Cause that's what I've been doing and its always empty.
Re: #AGN Internet Relay Chatroom
Try switching servers again after connecting. I think the first time I tried setting it up it switched me back if I didn't connect first. After you get it right the first time it should save those settings and load it up next time you connect.

we're all grown adults that work and go to school. if you want to talk to any of us you have to stay for days. IRC is a program you can keep running in the background of your computer without it interferring with anything. say whatever you want, and if somebody doesn't reply in 10-15 minutes, check back later in the day or evening. this is how it's been for years. some of you guys that come in, say hi, and leave disappointed 2 minutes later only look stupid. this isn't IM.
