EAB Xmas IRC Chat - Saturday 15th Dec 2001

CodyJarrett · 29 November 2001, 15:08

As the festive season draws near, I feel that it would be appropriate to hold an EAB Xmas IRC session.

I suggest Sunday 16th December - it's the weekend and anyone going on holiday over Christmas will probably still be around.

We can decide on some discussions, or let it flow naturally. The log of the discussion can be kept for future generations!

All are welcome!

I am going to ask a thick and stupid question but here goes.....

What is IRC?

CodyJarrett · 29 November 2001, 15:27

IRC = Internet Relay Chat

It's not quite so popular nowadays, but you get yourself a client like mIRC (for Windows) and log onto a server. Everyone else does the same and connects to a channel. Then you have a discussion with the other people in the channel.

IRC = Old fashion chat. Could be fun if there's something to talk about.

@ Cody: Why take a special day to chat?

The goal of this operation is to perform a virtual meeting with majority of EAB members during a whole day, on a channel

Drake1009 · 29 November 2001, 18:36

Which server would #Amigatronic be on? This was probably answered before though.

MethodGit · 29 November 2001, 19:23

This seems like a pretty good idea, methinks.

Although I fear people will leave upon my presence....

Drake1009 · 29 November 2001, 21:13

Don't tell me this thread is turning into yet another flaming thread

Can't we all just try to get along?

MethodGit · 29 November 2001, 22:36

Indeed.

I want everything to be nice and friendly here.
Let us all do our individual business with no problems!

icycool · 29 November 2001, 23:35

An IRC X-Mas chat would be grand

I'll bring the bells and stuff, you people can bring the beer

Also we can have 'Kick the Marz' contests

Prize of a uberleet ADF to the first person to do it at 50Hz for 1 second

C'U @ #AmigaTronic

CodyJarrett · 30 November 2001, 09:34

The only people who will do the kicking are RCK and myself!

Marz is certainly welcome... everyone is welcome.

I went to #AmigaTronic once. About 10 or so people there and I don't remember a single person there who would even talk to me. I idled for a bit, then logged off. Haven't been back since.

icycool · 30 November 2001, 10:36

I remember that once..Twisty..

I had just relogged, it was ~8.30am after a long night
I click to the channel to see you part..

I assume you saw me before I saw you......its easier to see someone joining than someone already in the channel you don't expect...

But I would love to see you back for an actual chat!

Twistin'Ghost · 30 November 2001, 11:32

I'll probably pop back in this weekend!

Amiga1992 · 30 November 2001, 17:16

I will join. Tell me the day and Ill be there!

That reminds me, I'll login now, to annoy icyfool

icycool · 30 November 2001, 17:19

IRC is retrograde bowelmovement.

icycool · 04 December 2001, 10:14

Perhaps only bcoz being a mac user, it was too difficult for you to work out Fred

Maybe you can find a nice bubblehelp to give you guidance
