So,
when is it going to be up? It has been ages since I have chatted on the net. It was fun at first, but it got boring. But with you guys it wont . We are a much better much more dysfunctional family than even the Osbournes. I love you guys! ;)

It is up, not may people seem to use it though :( a shame really

I went on there, cept no one on :(

Anyway, I'm thinking of a time to meet?

Hello!!! Im in chat right now if anyone cares to join. I didnt know that it was up or I would have been using it!!

Im gonna keep bumping this until someone joins me in chat

Bump [img]tongue.gif[/img]

I CANT GET IT TO WORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Someone give me directions! [img]graemlins/help.gif[/img]

OK -

hit the link

wait for the applet to download

hit yes when it asks you if you want to install it

(optional - hit always trust content from this source)

Put in your nickname (note, using Ziroc will not impress anyone. Nor will choc)

HIt connect

okay thank you! :D [img]smile.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/thumbsup.gif[/img]

It still will not work!!!!!!!!It tries those dallas,atlanta,london things but I can't get em to work!!!!!!!!!!

Once you've selected one, give it some time. It can be anywhere from 2 to 30 seconds before you have your connection

What does it say - you could be having firewall trouble or soemthing. If it gives an error post it, otherwise it will run through all the servers till it find s one that works.

It goes through them all and none work!!!!!

<font color=Orange>It does that to me too. ZIROC HELP PLEEEEEESE!</font>

Post what it says and ill see if i can make sense of it. Or more like Ziroc can.

What conncetions are you using?

The rest of you - there are people in there now. So come chat with us.

<font color=Orange>Well, it never really says anything, it just says on the little screen: Connecting to whateveritscalled ...! I went through all of them and waited for 5 minutes for each. No luck. SO HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!</font>

I cant help if you dont give me anything to help with. What Internet connectionare you using - schools, work, library? If its a home connection your firewall has to let traffic through on the righ ports - 6667 I think.

<font color=Orange>Too bad i don't have a firewall.</font>

Damnit goulom, theres always something isnt there.

OK, what else can break the chat? You have java turned on -must do to get as far as you are. Which browser you using? Have you ever gotten on before? Is your security set very high?

<font color=Orange>Internet Explorer 5.1 for mac
Nopers.
Nopers.</font>

ack, cant help you with a mac. But apparently you can log on through any regular MIRC program, if you happen to have one.

DAVROS,
Come and join us! (or I'm going home)

<font color=Orange>Whats a MIRC program?</font>

you can d/l it from www.mirc.com and it's... a bit like the screen you get using the browser, but with more options once you learn to use them (you can adjust the width of the screen too ;) )

To get on IW, just fire it up, go through the first-time procedures, add a new server by clicking 'add' in the options menu and fill in something like Description: Ironworks, IRC server: dallas.tx.us.undernet.org (or any other server listed when using the browser) and Port(s): 6667

Then click connect to IRC server, type /join #Ironworks and you're in.

It's a bit more work first time around, but if jIRC (I think it's jIRC anyway) doesn't work, you might as well try it this way.

Hope I got this right [img]smile.gif[/img]

I think it might be a good idea to sticky a thread containing the Chat Room URL, as I think not as many people are using it because they haven't seen the threads about it.

<font color=Orange>Thanks for the help, but I'm on a mac!</font>

i can't get it to work, either. and i get on java irc chats all the time for other games, dev conferences, etc.

it just runs and runs and runs but never makes that final connection.

don't understand why it won't work. port 6667, right? thats standard for these things, iirc. any and all help is welcomed.

btw, why not have regular times? like am and pm depending on where you are, or what hours you keep.

V***V
