Irc ?

[TheCardinal]

ÃÂRC has been mentioned in several threads, but i have no idea what it is or where to look for it. Can somebody explain IRC to me and how i can use it, please?

IRC stands for Internet Relay Chat. It's possibly the earliest instant message system on the internet.

It allows people to talk to each other in real time.

Check this topic out for more info.

The simplest way to join us on IRC is to follow this link: http://client03.chat.mibbit.com/?channel=%23kspofficial&server=irc.esper.net&charset=windows-1251

Just fill in your name at that page an press go. And it will connect you to the channel.

You can also use a dedicated IRC program that you run from your computer rather then a webclient.

If you like hanging out in our IRC chan I recommend that you get one. Most are free.

mIRC is a fairly popular one. Theres also xchat , pidgin (supports lots of other things as well.), and many more.

Hope to see you there

Thank you, Speedio. That makes everthing completely clear. I'll download pidgin and i'll be seeing you soon on the IRC channel.
