well yeah hi and stuff

hi

It was fun playing against you on Galt's

Hey, make a stop by IRC if you can. A lot of us hang out there.

Install the "chatzilla" addon in firefox
go to irc://irc.quakenet.org
join channels: #nexuiz and #nexuiz.ninjaz

One more thing.
If you can't make it on IRC, then thats not good you scumbag hamster rapist.

*Backs away slowly from doku*

Don't feel forced to use irc, doku will only hunt you down... then after that you're fine.

Har Doku, why chatzilla

Xchat ftw!

My dear scumbag hamster rapist, It is spelled faux pas.

mIRC is the way to go if you're on windoze:)

Xchat for me, on Windows or anywhere else!

kvirc's the best on any platform, imo

Naah, XChat2 is the best, and easiest.

Wow, I've started a debate.

I mentioned chatzilla because it's incredibly easy for most people to setup and use. Simplicity is a good thing. A lot of people are not comfortable with using things like IRC ....*looks at shaggy*... and making it dead simple is helpful.

I personally use HydraIRC in Windows.

I've tried XChat (windows) and didn't really care for it.
I used to use mIRC back in the day, but now it feels antiquated.

I use Colloquy in Mac OS, and it's by far the best IRC client I've ever used. Simple, fully featured, and it uses very little memory. It's also GPL.

If you tell new players (people unfamiliar with IRC) to install Chatzilla, then you can just point them to a URL like this

irc://irc.quakenet.org#nexuiz

That way, you don't have to tell them how to connect to the server or what channel to join. It's the most simplistic instructions that I can think of for IRC.

1. Install chatzilla
2. click that link

That was my reasoning for suggesting chatzilla. It works on any platform as long as they have Firefox installed (which most nexuiz players seem to do). If they want to find more advanced IRC clients, then they can do that afterward.

Does that type of URL work with other IRC clients?

uh, that's the only type of IRC link that i know of. it should work with most clients. i forgot if it works automatically or if you have to configure something. (i've tested mIRC successfully with Opera, Firefox and Internet Explorer)

Or use a web irc thing. Much easier!!

<cut out and insert any of the irc comments from one of the previous posters here>

Hey that's pretty awesome. I tested that and it worked well.

Is that a proxy or just a web client?

Don't listen to these fools, they are just upset because your strategy is beating theirs.

"Wah wah, I died because I ran to the flag with tunnel vision and didn't pick up and armor, my strategy was FLAWLESS, if only that STUPID CAMPER didn't kill me!"

They must change their strategy if they wish to defeat your defense. Keep up the good work.
