Official tester's IRC channel #ZCTesters

I was thinking of posting this. Glad jman got to it first though. XD *lol*

It's a fairly nice channel. Active occasionally, ... BigJoe pops in there too. It usually has jman, Nick, Wild Bill, Praethus, Hero Link, Dart_Zaidyr, Snort/Sephiroth, myself, etc. Nice channel.

EDIT: Only jman2050 and PolygonX8 can assign SOP. (Admin.) However, I can give you voice or an invitation. If you ask/notice ( /notify BH4 Message) me, I'll look to see your IRC identity, and if it matches, you'll be in. Or you can specify your details here, particularly if you don't use IRC often.

Forgot to mention that this IS an invite-only channel. If you can't get in, speak to either myself, PolygonX8, or anyone else who has access >_>

NOTE You must have a registered nickname on irc.initialized.org before you can even join.

Oh great, I tried to test that statement and it banned me.

I'm Dart_Zaidyer. Let me in!

Is McCrackin still a IRCop or whatever of initialized?

In order to register your nickname on Initialized, first type:

[font=courier]/ns register password E-mail[/font]

For Example: [font=courier]/ns register potatosack55 [email][email protected][/email][/font]

Once you're registered, you can do one of two things.

1) Type [font=courier]/join #PureZC[/font] and let it be known that you're trying to join the channel, and hopefully someone who's in both channels will be able to allow you access.

2) Notice me, or a fellow tester, using [font=courier]/notice Username Message[/font] (Ignore the colors - they just differentiate between variables.) and we can ensure that you're who you say you are, (On the internet, everyone's a dog. You all know that. 😛 ) I or other AOP/SOP's can then allow you access into the channel.

We Look forward to seeing you there. 😊

precisely. Everyone be sure to use a unique password.

just out of curiosity, should this be on Cyber2K's server? that IS the server that AGN's chat is on, but if this works, whatever

Personally, I think it's fine where it is. I see no potential for a reason to change. But others may have better, more complete thoughts.

I checked out the channel, my nick is Jigglysaint for those who have the power to unban me so I can post.

Oh yeah, I should probably elaborate, that if you try to join WITHOUT a registered nick and without having been invited first, you'll be banned from it, which makes your entry all the more difficult, as you could very well be both trying to join with a voiced, registered name, and still be barred from entry.

Thus, perhaps it's best to /notice those individuals who may be in the channel.

In fact, when you first go on initialized, as a precaution, [font=courier]/join #PureZC[/font] and see if you see any familiar names. To speak with a person wherever they are, one on one, type either [font=courier]/query Nickname[/font] or [font=courier]/notice Nickname[/font].

You can enlist the help of a fellow tester to get you in.

BTW, I'm nto sure if it's possible... but is there someway to give founder access to more than one person per channel? I founded the channel itself, and gave it over to jman, but I still have the password to give myself owner status (But, I'm limited to certain things because I gave the founder access over. :P).

OMG! You forgot me... I'm in there whenever I am on IRC too. Nice to have a channel to yap about ZC/ZQ features, and what would be good stuff to add.

initialized now supports secured connections via SSL, too, if you're concerned about privacy. Quoth the news page:

We're pleased to announce that Initialized has officially adopted support for encrypted connections. SSL is available at TCP ports 6697 and 9999 on Descartes.

Many popular IRC clients now provide native support for secure connections. Others, such as mIRC, may require additional effort to configure.

If you have any questions, please message one of our network operators on IRC.

A question.

Shouldn't thsi be open to everyone, since testing is public until the next version of ZC? o_O

If this thing is ever still used, I would appreciate access. Nick is DarkDragon.

I've got you on Autovoice. 😊 A pleasure having you, DarkDragon. :thumbsup: I'm ShadowTiger. (Among other nicks. )
