IRC Channel - Page 3

El Pirata · 02-27-2008, 04:37 PM

Why not make a BT IRC channel, that could prove to be potentially interesting, although for the people that dont know how to work it, it may prove to be a little difficult. With the chatzilla extension though, it might be easier than having to download a separate client. Nice alternative to the chat, so what does everyone think?

irc://irc.rizon.net/%23beasttoast
(direct link to irc, should open with chatzilla when you click on it)

edit:

step by step:

download addon for firefox:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/16

after it has restarted go to Tools > Chatzilla

in the text box type /server irc.rizon.net and enter

in the text box type /join #beasttoast

that is all

Will put this on front page as well. Also, you can make it to where everytime you run chatzilla it starts out on that page, also you might have to create a nickname, but you can probably figure that out

To put this all in one, I'll reiterate that to get IRC and get to the chat:

download addon for firefox:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/16

After it has restarted go to Tools > Chatzilla

In the text box type /server irc.rizon.net and enter

Pick a nickname and switch to it using the command /nick yournickhere

In the text box type /join #beasttoast

To register your name:

Type in the text box: /nickserv register passwordhere e-mailhere

It will send you an e-mail at that address, which will have a confirmation code. It will go ahead and give you exactly the command to put in which will look like "/msg nickserv confirm codehere"

This will log you in, but next time you come in it will want you to identify, or put in your password, which is done by the command "/nickserv identify yourpasshere"

That will get you on and registered, There is more I could put, but I will work on it later.

[Should I just make a different IRC How to thread and we could sticky it so people can find it?]

How do I do 'dat?

In preferences, I pressed "log this view" - is that how you do it?

I suppose I could read the "help" section, huh?

IRC is officially better than chat, no advertisements XD

Is there a way I can use mIRC or pIRCh to join the IRC by any chance? Just curious.

Can I do all of this on a mac? My computer is currently down and I do not want to try anything that could potentially harm my mom's computer....believe me when I tell you this, she will kill me if it changes any of her settings.

....please don't flame me for this question :'( I can feel it all coming now.
