Title: IRC Guide
Post by: Kairiya on January 21, 2008, 08:14:45 pm

Since we've had a few questions about how to use IRC, here's a handy guide!
If you have any questions, please ask them and I'll put the answers in this guide as I am able!

1.  Go to http://www.mirc.com/ (http://www.mirc.com/) and click "Download IRC."
2.  Download and install the program.
3.  When you run the program, a "Connect to Server" box will pop up.  DO NOT enter your real name in "Full name"!  Enter the information asked for and click "connect."
4.  Type /server irc.dairc.net - this will connect you to the server that our channel is on.
5.  If this is your first time using this server, type /msg nickserv register (password) (email address) without the parenthesis.  This will register your nickname with the server so that only you can use it.
6.  Type /join #aro - this will get you into the AnesisRO channel!  Begin chatting!
7.  Either type /quit or click the "x" button in the upper right-hand corner to quit chatting.

Other useful information:

Type /nick (newnicknamehere) without the parenthesis to change your nickname.

If you're having trouble connecting:
Try typing /server irc.frantech.ca:6667
-OR- /server irc.deltaanime.net:6667

Thanks to Kaeri for the alternate server information!

Would this be the same as downloading IRC.

Oh snap, a GM who actually knows how to use IRC!  I remember when Talis let the channel's registration drop and Denia came in to re-register it, we basically had to teach her everything.

Also protip:  If you don't want to download anything, go to http://chat.deltaanime.net/ , enter the name you want to use and the channel (#anthemro), and click Chat Now.

For those of you that find the newest version of mIRC difficult to use and a little unsightly, there is a link to download an older version (6.2) here: http://www.oldversion.com/download.php?idlong=9bb70ca4e1959a6aa7f6ff793107dbd6

Additionally, once you have registered your name (using the /ns register command), each time you want to use that nickname in the future, you will have to identify yourself! You can do this by typing:

Code: [Select]

/ns identify password
...obviously with your own password in place of the word "password".

Another helpful piece of information, if ever you forget the password you registered with, have DeltaAnime send it to you with the following command:

Code: [Select]

/ns sendpass nickname
...again, with your own nickname in place of where it says "nickname" above. Your password will be sent to the e-mail address you initially registered with! :)

Any chance that the IRC might be moved to a different server?

I keep getting DC'd on dairc.  Not sure if it's me or their server.  Probably me.  :P
