Any interest in setting up a hawks IRC channel? It's nice to have a place where people can just see guild related and non-related chatter without being logged onto the game, plus you can idle there without getting disconnected (or at least, if you do d/c, you can set it up to reconnect/rejoin channel). I -would- like it to be IRC if we do set up a chatroom. I do NOT like the gabbly piece of shit they use in TFF. I'm open to other suggestions outside of gabbly, I suppose. If we do go with IRC, most of my irc channels are in irc.procrast.net, so if we can set up shop there, even better. If we do set up channels, setting up two channels, one for officers and one for the whole guild would be nice. It also gives us a venue of having meeting where we can just log conversations instead of having to have a notekeeper, btw. So we can just send complete logs to people that missed the meetings, so they can get the whole picture instead of just the final decision. |

This isn't a bad idea at all.....I'm rather in agreement of it. Now I won't have to log on to WoW to bitch at Holy or have you make fun of me. Gabbly is out. I hate it. The only problem is I don't know how eager our other members would be to download this. -shrug- I would, if we get enough members interested. |

Ok, we got some people interested. I downloaded IRC and what the hell? It's a trial version. I hate to pay for this kind of stuff. Also, it looked so confusing.......I'll just wait till you're on to explain stuff to me. =P |

Ah, you grabbed mIRC, huh? Personally, I can't stand that client, I use X-Chat. I'll throw the installer up on RapidShare or something and link it here. Edit: On second thought, I'll just link to the build I'm using. |

Eh, I don't find mIRC to be a problem. The trial thing just means you get to skip the message asking for money when logging on. You never actually -have- to pay anything. And if you leave the client open all the time, well, no problem then! I also found it simple enough. Steps to using mIRC: 1) Download program from mIRC and install/open. 2) If it's your first time using the program, it should automatically open the options menu in the correct window. If it doesn't, go to "View" then "Options". In the options menu, you'll see at the side a "Category" list. Select "Connect". 3) Type some junk for "Full Name" and "Email" (or the real. I don't care. :P). All you care about is filling the Nickname and Alternate sections. The alternate is for when you peer and leave a ghost in the channel. 4) Click "Ok" once that's done. You will now be in the "Status" window. Here, type: /server irc.procrast.net 5) You will have to wait a little bit, but eventually you'll join this server. (Hopefully!) Now, type: /join #bandofthehawks 6) Congratulations, you are now in a chatroom. =p I just registered the channel I mentioned above, for that matter. |

Well, in my case, the lights aren't on, even if the name is (which is Merc, for the curious). I leave the computer on at home, so I'll be logging everything that happens in the channel (assuming more people join), but won't be able to read/join in until I get home sometime around 9pm or so. Maybe earlier if I decide to play hookey from my Tae Kwon Do classes tonight.

Well, I think we can call the IRC channel a failure. Only Solar, Zeph, Nyn, Des and hell hound showed up there, and we almost never had matching times on the channel. Oh well. |
