Loren Wade Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 OK tried both, no such luck. Sad I won't be in chats anymore, hopefully I'll figure this out soon!What do you see when you click the link? Where are you using Internet? Home?Don't give up yet. That's not the only answer. There are dedicated clients for this. Quote lobro's a druid? twitter | fb Link to comment
CalvinHobbes Posted April 22, 2012 Report Share Posted April 22, 2012 You don't live in a dorm do you? Most colleges block any irc due to illegal downloading and what not.Nope, own apartment. Think Comcast has it out for me?PS...sorry for spamming this thread! Quote Link to comment
Deanna Posted April 23, 2012 Report Share Posted April 23, 2012 In Pidgin you do Manage Accounts > Add IRC with a specific quakenet server. Then when it's connected you can use Buddies > Add chat on that IRC account. After that is done your IRC channel is added as a friend in your friendlist. Thank you x a million!!! Much better than the browser. Quote In training to be awesome! Link to comment
WizardTrip Posted April 23, 2012 Report Share Posted April 23, 2012 First thought, "The 90's called and they want their chat back!" - HAHA!! mIRC FTW!!Second thought, "Quakenet? Agh....there goes chatting from work *sigh*"Third thought answered by Loren, but not sure if it will be an answer to not being able to chat at work, but I'll pull out my geek skills and figure out something.spezzy says they have plans on integrating the web chat into the forum to make it more convenient.Also, good suggestions on Colloquy. Been using it since it was released many years ago. Guess it may be time to test it out on the iPhone.

Anivair Posted April 23, 2012 Report Share Posted April 23, 2012 I love this chat, by the way. Any chance we can get it linked from the main page of the forum? I mean, I'll probably just use an irc client for it, but for the ease of use for future generations of rebels ....

Artinum Posted April 24, 2012 Report Share Posted April 24, 2012 This should be interesting. I am downloading an app for my iPhone as I'm unlikely to be available for chat on the main computer very often. Here's hoping it works, and that some of you will be online when I am.

Denny Posted April 24, 2012 Report Share Posted April 24, 2012 In some clients you have to type commands, so in addition to what Loren Wade said you might have to type;To connect to a server (pick a server URL from this list) /s irc.quakenet.orgTo set a nickname /nick YourNameTo join a channel /j #channelname Quote -> Dead Athletes Don't Lie -> John Cleese on Creativity -> Digital addiction and the chaotic mind My Bucket List Link to comment
bigm141414 Posted April 30, 2012 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 Any chance we can get a link up top in the title bar? Perhaps right next to Forum and Blog buttons? I waste precious seconds digging up this thread. I may miss something good!Edit: Doh! I really need to learn to read the thread. Apparently this was already asked for....
