I was tired of the flashchat going way slow on my computer, so I set up a nice, quick IRC channel!

Server: irc.nightstar.net
Channel: #lds

EDIT: not_ashamed and I were just testing it, and it works fine! and it goes SO FAST! 0_0;
I also got it all up and in plublic working order

It's been a long time since I opened up mIRC or anything like it. I used to use it years ago, but if I chose to use an IRC program today for whatever reason, it'd be an open source one, which mIRC unfortunately isn't (it's not even really freeware, though a lot of people use it like it is).

The only IRC commands I remember are /kline and /kill ... they just happened to be the ones I used the most

I haven't used ACTUAL IRC (Dalnet, Effnet, etc) in years. A friend of mine runs an IRC server that a bunch of us still use... we've been using it since high school, so checking to see who is online in the evening is kind of a habbit... heck, some of them have IRC clients on their iphones, so they're almost always around.

Plenty of people use IRC! It used for everything from Linux tech support to game modding to programming!

Though, mIRC isn't the only way to go, there are plenty of free programs like Pidgin and IceChat that are freeware(and opensource a good amount of the time) IRC clients, or you can use the java based client that nightstar.net(the server that's hosting#lds) uses!

Personally, I use it for #lds, general chatting, tech support, and game mod collaborating
