Chat! Chat! Chat! (Official IRC Channel - Details)
Posted: Sat Apr 26, 2008 5:33 pm
I don't know about anyone else, but I fell that this group of people are among one of the finest communities that I know. I am frustrated though. I post here regularly, and respond whenever I can with what I hope is semi-valuable ramblings from a broken mind.
I was wondering if anyone would be interested in a live chat channel on an IRC server. Obviously the ultimate decision lies with Jeff, but I'd be happy to setup, administrate and moderate it wherever possible. I'd consider it my duty.
What do you folks think?
EDIT: By Popular demand, I've been asked to post the up-to-date server details and Rules/Disclaimer here for easy access:

No bots or scripts are to join the channel.
No blatantly and harmfully insulting other channel members.

No Defaming Remarks
No Discrimination
No Flame Wars
We don't dig 1337sp33k.
Use proper grammar. No "u" instead of "you" or "ur" instead "your". Also learn the proper differences and meanings of "there", "their", and "they're". These three are not interchangeable, and should be used properly. (I'm deadly serious).
Overuse of "lol" gets very annoying fast, so stop and think "Is this really funny?" before typing those three letters.
No being gross or overuse of obscenity, you'll get a warning for first offenses, and kicks for more use. If it gets out of hand you'll be banned and we'll send a letter to your parents.
Although the topic for In The Shell is Ghost in the Shell and it's related matter, this is a social channel and the topic is open for any reasonable discussions, or social chit chat. Moderators reserve the right to stop any conversation channel members or Moderators find distasteful, or violates any of the above rules.
I am currently not handing out Op to anyone else, apart from Jeff and Sylphi (who automatically qualify as forum Moderators). This decision may be altered depending on individuals showing a mature and sensible attitude.
What is said in IRC stays in IRC unless all persons involved agree that you are allowed to quote it elsewhere. Be aware that persons in IRC may also reveal things about themselves that they don't necessarily want to reflect back on the forums. Keep your head on and don't go shooting your mouth off.
Have Fun.
