Topic: IRC channel
This section looked so empty so here's a quick help to join us in IRCnet (after RUNEnet goes down):
fire up your favorite irc client like
mIRC
Xchat
Chatzilla or a
webclient
Then you gotta go find a server. Now this is the "tricky" part altho it usually is very easy if you know what you're doing.
IRCnet is made of tens, even hundreds of servers which are linked as one big network. Because of much abuse many
of the servers are limited to a specific country or a specific ISP only. So the first place for you to look a irc-server to join
is your ISP (Internet Service Provider) settings page or FAQ page or similar. If your ISP doesnt have a server of its own,
then try this list:
and again, try to find a server as close to you as possible.
Only after these steps have failed should you try a server list that is in your client!
Those lists are usually out-of-date and don't have your local servers listed as they should be.
After getting in its just the matter of typing:
/join #seed
and voilá!
If many people have much difficulties joining IRCnet which should be the most easy to access since it is the "original" irc network,
we might consider migrating to another network. But lets stick to IRCnet for now, mmkay??
P.S. You should be able to connect with the webclient from anywhere and join the channel to ask for more help if you need it.
