Hello everyone,
This is the link to the IRC Chat, if you sign on please give it a moment to load up and say hello! I'd like to thank Game Master and Delta for arranging and hosting.

I remember we had like 3-4 chat sessions before. But that was like a year ago

Jason1 · 04-06-2006, 10:53 PM

why not just put a chat up on the homepage again? I know weve gone through several of those. Anyone remember the one where you could choose a littler person and draw and stuff? Almost like pictochat...

Try getting like a java script that will hook into a IRC

MuGen · 04-06-2006, 11:26 PM

yes a chat would be very convenient... especially in busy hours where everyone is on.

chats always die out in a matter of weeks

DimHalo · 04-06-2006, 11:45 PM

I agree with Neo. They're fun when they're new but then they die off pretty quickly.

But never the less I think it will increase activity if not for a little while. Plus its neat to chat with other members that you have little or no knowledge of.

Im in the chat right now and so are some other peeps that are hosting the thing for us, apparently.

I remember at NintendoDolphin.net we had a weekly chat and that worked out well and was quite fun. Think it might keep the chat going longer than having it open always and hoping people will be there.

Bube · 05-14-2006, 06:23 AM

The biggest problem is that we all think it'll die off eventually, and don't bother to join the chat. I think we should all give it a try, it just might catch on..

The weekly chat is a very good idea.

All you need is a good server and a channel and a bot.

Hey, I'm the owner of DigitalAddiction, a small group of individuals that have interests primarily in computer related topics. I am also a friend of gameMaster, and I happened to catch the thread requesting an IRC chat; it Just so happens that DigitalAddiction has a small closed IRC network. I can offer GameTavern a channel on my network. The post made by GameMaster with the Java applet should work fine with my network, however for better reliability you should use a real client like mIRC to access the network. If you need any more information related to our sever, please contact me. I will be happy to aid you.

I will request that anyone joining the chat to idle on the network instead of leaving, since many people connect and shortly leave due to the ‘emptiness’. I'm thinking if someone hangs around a little so the next user to join can see a (hopefully) familiar name and may stay a bit little longer. I know it is not a whole lot. Nevertheless I hope everybody will at least attempt to have patience and give it a chance to start off.

Thanks for the opportunity to help out.
I hope you enjoy
