this has not been an active chat in probably over a year now. I know this, because I used to lurk off and on.

Not sure if board admin/mods are around, but it should be removed from the board sticky. Also if board mods want to link an ACTIVE chat with 40+ people logged in at any given time (20 or so active) they might consider linking

#mmerp-ooc or #1001Lewd_nights

for those who are IRC challenged, there is a widget to get in chat easily at

http://1k1ln.net16.net/

changing your nick can be done using " /nick newnamehere " and joining other channels can be done with " /join #channelname "

IRC allows people to create any number of new channels by simply /join-ing a channel that doesn't already exist.

Why should I go RP on IRC when F-Chat's way of handling the entire getup is superior in every way?

f-chat, which goes down randomly, only operates in set rooms, doesnt't work on anything but PC very well, etc?

Sure. Go for it.

You can create private invite only rooms that on F-Chat, which can then be oppened up to the public.

IRC isn't without its own flaws like:

- A 512 character limit on messages, which is shared with protocol overheads.

- Random netsplits, resulting in the users in the channel being split apart until the netsplit is fixed.

Different strokes for different folks and all that. IRC is fine for ERPing and it's an alternative to F-Chat if you don't want to use it for what ever reason.

Nigger what.

Over here we call it an anti-Fai security measure.

That's not even an anti-fai security message. That's 'literally two full messages in WoW.'

I don't even -know-. My lewds when I was fucking twelve were longer than that. Goddamn.

The buffer (character limit) is irrelevant. Any good client worth its salt will auto split long posts for you. I multipara'd over IRC for years. The netsplits are more annoying, however, and not even the worst excesses of F-List staff can compare to the unrelenting rivers of autism possessed by your typical IRC server admin/chanop. Also, it's ancient. No avatars (some modern clients will do avatars but nobody ever uses them), no profiles, no kink lists to check compatibility, no way to filter for literacy (and no matter what your feeling on Fai is, nobody wants '/me nuzzles ur chest and murrrrssss x3' as a partner), no way to filter for craziness (and there's more crazy on your typical server than a jehovah's witness convent), and in general, there's more landmines you have to avoid.

Some pluses include the fact that an IRC client will run well on fucking anything, and more multiOS options, etc. Less bloat too.
