Title: Boyah IRC Chat.
Post by: BlackDS on June 07, 2010, 06:13:19 PM
I know there are chat threads, but I think It would be a lot more fun for Boyah to have its own IRC channel.

I heard that http://www.badnik.net/ would be a good place to get one of those things.

Good idea? bad Idea?

Boyah's had an IRC chat at irc.chatspike.net in #dhitboyay

But every time it's mentioned, people stay in it at most a couple days after that and then it becomes empty for months.

We just need to get members to keep mIRC running in the background. Once you can get in the habbit of doing so, IRC is a lot more fun, since you always have people to talk to.

I would have done it had I ever figured out how to get it to work

I vote that somebody (Bluaki) makes an instructional thread on how to get it working through mIRC, and then members just keep it in the background, so if you're on the computer, you're in Boyah IRC. Hell, you could even do it through pidgin, which is just as easy.

Why mIRC? Are you clientist? madood;

But yeah the only problem with that is that we lose activity on the forums when people are on IRC a lot.

Just set any IRC client to the server "stitch.chatspike.net" and the channel "#dhitboyay".

In Pidgin, you have to add an account for IRC and leave its password field blank then use the buddy list's join chat dialog.

In XChat (or YChat, its free Windows version), just select ChatSpike from the Network list and join the channel. On the chance that you have a connection issue, edit ChatSpike's entry in the list to something like this: [spoiler](http://imgur.com/bqF1A.png)[/spoiler]

mIRC sucks and is overcomplicated, not to mention it's a non-free nagging trial. If you don't like Pidgin, I'd suggest trying XChat (Windows link (http://www.silverex.org/news/))

I leave my IRC client running whenever I'm online so I'll be in there if other people are.

Alright I am going to stay signed on in pidgin now. Everybody else should do the same.

Today I went to the gym for an intense workout of my pecs and delts. Finished it off with my patented burnout, I am a beast, just look at these guns. Afterwards I headed to the GNC to grab another tub of whey protein, but they still hadn't restocked. I would have been super pissed if the girl behind the counter hadn't been so checking me out. MLIB
