No, seriously, I have no clue.

i spend most my free time in mirc and i have a shell account to host a bot, i make a room call #HLP_CHAT using dal.net i urge everyone to join, and the rules here (steak, tumbler, cobalt, shrike u all know who u are, come in and i will set u all as ops, (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif) ) it could be pretty cool, as u can have real time chat between everyone

I don't really know if a chat channel is really useful... I find the Forums just fine, really (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

chat with 400 people is hard on these forums, it is much better with IRC, and it way cooler if u get excursion!

Hmm, whilst it's a good idea...
Theres ICQ and MSN and so on...
The forums have been fine so far...
It'd be really hard to make sure it wasn't misused. Not that you would - but thats a major problem as I see it.
However a real time chat is a good idea, consider me "thinking" about this one...
-
well u can have bots that kick people for foul language, and other malicious use, the channel is made, i am in there so join it when u are ready

if you moderate an irc channel in the way you moderate here it won't work.
no fascism allowed.
sorry (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif)

He's saying we over-moderate the forums.
Actually IRC would have to be more lax in it's ruling, and that probably wouldn't matter as theres no publically available log of past conversations and so on, unlike forums where what people say is visible to all. Therefore within reason you can have a fair amount more freedom there - so long as it's clean and civil.

Would you like an example of how it does work? It can be arranged you know.

Now now, we've seen worse - let it live (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)

ahem, i have a long of all the conversation that has taken place in any chat room i visit, or any person i PM if u dont believe me then i will send u the log, with minor private things removed, so anything said would get noticed, also racism, calling thorn, sally (actually forget that (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/biggrin.gif) ) over excessive use of the french language, sorry venom, (but u know what i mean) can all recieve a kick up the arse and straight out the channel for any length of time, it is called bots for those people that dont know and i can make them, so we have no problem about moderation. And flame wars well who cares, let them take it out on a PM which this place does not have, well it does but no-one uses it. So if u people at HLP wanna endorse it, come in and actually stay *looks at thunderhl* yes i know u came in, i have the logs (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif) then maybe it could go somewhere, otherwise it will be the occasional drop in and people saying
[1:33am]« wEvil » nice & busy i see :P, well if u come in at that time wEvil then what do u expect, it is only america that are awake then the rest of the world sleeps. So in conclusion, come in and chat.

-
I dunno what or where DALNET is..I don't use mIRC, a diff version with a modded list that doesn't include DALNET..
-
If you need to find me I'll probably be in #unbob
-

wEvil u come in to the channel at really wierd times, like 2 in the morning and so no sain human being is awake at them times, and most of them retire from the channel as there internet connections do not permit a 24/7 connection

Well, for some of us, it could be different world times. I think most of the people here are from the United States or Europe. I'm from Singapore so the diference in time is very great.

Australia is just as bad... (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)
I don't know about an IRC. I really just think the Forums are fine. I mean... okay. How many people do you think'll be online, and in the chat, at the same time?
-
Might be worth looking at though, for the time being the forums are working ok.
-
i dont dispute the fact that the forums are good, they are ******* excellent! but it is nice to have faster real time chat with more than one person!

Seriously guys, I think ICQ is sufficient. Honestly, if a bunch of guys want to get together from HLP - use the Forums. You've all seen how Sticks, Shrek and I have been able to use it pretty much in realtime, with spectacular effects... follow our example.

Just don't do it that much... make sure it's a meaningful conversation - ICQ is good enough for spamming (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/wink.gif)
