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
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.
No you're not. Just a suggestion.
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.
you need to create a new network called 'irc.cyber2k.net'
Oke worked, did take a few minutes but I'm in 😊

Fixed. I also updated the tutorial on Chat Etiquette.
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?
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.
is there still chat?
i havent been able to connecto to cyber2k in months.

Try 80.198.131.50 (6667)
cyber2k has been down for a while now.
The new address is irc.thepentagon.org. It's the same network, only the cyber2k domain doesn't work anymore.
Can I still come through the chat or is glitch gonna keep banning me? It's been a while...
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
Pidgin is by far the simplest program to use 😉 (Pidgin = new Gaim)
Whatsup with chat nowadays? There is no #agn in thepentagon.
Suggestions?
Bwahaha.
I am joining this evening. Thanks for updating the info, Breaker.
As for the rest of you AGNers...come join us.
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.
/me closes "So..." again so that people are forced into joining chat.
Come in, or regret it...
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.
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.
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.
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. 😃
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: ...

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.
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. 😉
And I'm just to lazy to download the program in the first place. I'll get around to it eventually....
