Members Only Chat is up and functional... Mondays at 10pm Eastern?

[Nathan Flowers]

As a service to our friends here at the Lounge, I have set up a chat system at my personal website:

http://www.conanthelibrarian.com/chat

While the chat will be available for use 24/7, in the past we have found it more useful to have a specific time to meet up each week. If I recall correctly, our last chat time was every Monday night at 10PM eastern, 7pm Pacific. However, this is open to debate. Please post in this thread if this time would be good for you.

Just make up a username for yourself in the box (some of you with common usernames such as your initials, will have to add something to it, like JP1955, or JP-guy in charge, or JP-retroman), then connect to it. In the case of somebody impersonating you in the chat, shoot me a quick email or PM here on the board, and I will fix it.

I have tried to make this as painless as possible for those of us that are not used to IRChat, but some issues may still arise. If so, don't hesitate to contact me, MK, or any of the other bartenders.

As a bartenders, we have the right and capability to throw a bum out if necessary. I don't think it's going to happen, but we reserve the right to ban any malicious users for LIFE in order to keep the place orderly. To help us keep order, please keep the knowledge of this chat among members of the Lounge.

Our old chat room served as a source of great fun, and informative conversation amongst friends. I look foward to "seeing" you all there.

You need java installed and running in IE, Netscape, or Mozilla.

Are we going to have to re-register or is this the same service as what you had going last time and the info is still there?

Of course, I suppose I could just go find out...

Different service, but no registering necessary. Just put your username in, and log in.


It's IRC based on DAL.net. I'm not sure how familiar you are with IRC, so you can register if you want, but it's quite complicated. Most people won't register, and won't have a problem with it.
