#SFxT IRC chatroom on Efnet, come one, come all!

Fergus2k8

http://client01.chat.mibbit.com/

Just select efnet as a server and put in w/e name and #SFxT in channel

An alternative web client for efnet is

http://www.efnet.org/

Webchat login is on the right, the usual, put in any nickname and then #SFxT.

Alternatively, you can use mIRC or other IRC clients.

http://www.mirc.com/get.html

You click on tools, then options, click on Efnet folder, pick a relevent server, put in nickname and tick the "new window box" and connect! The channel is #SFxT, so type in /join #SFxT

That's a good idea. When my stream is up people there was always discussion on the stream chat -- even when it was off. Only thing is it may be redundant to have another place to hang out once my stream is running again *cough cough SECDEF cough cough*

Freakmonkey

I'd totally dig it, I don't know how it will affect traffic on the forum though.

I'm a bit unfamiliar with your stream, is it a 24/7 stream? if so then scrap this idea :p

Dr. Grammar

Is it possible to use the stream chat via IRC? I'd rather not keep a stream open all the time.

Fergus2k8

You can minimize the window of the IRC chat and put it over the stream chat if you are watching the stream/chatting.

That's what I do in my chats when I'm watching streams.

It was 24/7 mostly but currently I'm not able to really stream right now due to work. http://www.twitch.tv/automattock I'll be back towards the end of next month... hopefully >_>

I tried to stream SFxT PC on my laptop earlier today and I think my processor almost vomited blood.. or acid... whatever machines vomit when they're in pain.

Fergus2k8

It'd be a place where people can just idle in and strike up a conversation whenever.

I'm just concerned about it possibly taking discussion away from this forum.

You can access the JTV IRC via any IRC client (ie the same way you access Efnet/Quakenet).
Here are the instructions: http://www.justin.tv/p/irc_guide
I'm usually idling in the chat and I often see Slayerslice, Darkphyre/Shaniril, and Mr. Hunter as well. Most of the regulars don't show up anymore though

What's the name of the channel?

EDIT: Got it sorted.

Fergus2k8

The channel is up on Efnet, it's #SFxT

I just need to figure out how to set perma ops on it, but if everyone can go in there and idle to keep the channel there, that'd be great :p

There is no site for the webchat for efnet, so you could use your client to access Efnet server (clients like mIRC)

What's wrong with quakenet? Everyone uses it..

I was actually thinking of moving to Quakenet since Efnet is pretty outdated and there's no perma ops.

But all the FG/SRK groups are on efnet, so we'd attract people there, but if people want to move to Quakenet (a better server with more features), I don't mind, I know how to setup perma ops and some cool features on Quakenet. Wouldn't take me long to do it.

I think this is a better idea since we potentially could lose the channel due to a takeover, if no one's there to op, so Quakenet is a better option, it's just all the FG chats are on Efnet, and we might take in a person or 2 from the other FG chats

What do you all think?

Fergus2k8

We'll just leave it at Efnet for now, I'll put the post on how to enter the chat into the OP

So... I don't see a lot of regulars in the room...
I (the great) happen to lounge in #SFxT often. That should be more than enough reason for you guys to get in there.

Sorry I didn't appreciate that beating you gave me yesterday with Kazuya. 60% damage meterless with EWGF made me really want to just give up put down the controller and let you perfect me both rounds. Unfortunately my partner wouldn't have been too thrilled with me if I had done that.

Awesome, another channel for me to idle in 24/7. I approve.

That guys Chun was too cheap and annoying so I had to retaliate. :|

roknin

I'll be in periodically, and probably a lot tomorrow after work once I'm able to get some good alone time with the new squad.

Fergus2k8

Shameless bump

Cody&Guy18

I could be wrong, but do you really need a client to chat? I simply went to efnet.org and entered the channel there...

Unfortunately at the time it was created, efnet.org was down for a day or 2, so I put up a client for people to use instead.

But yes, that's an easier way to access the chat now.

Fergus2k8

We're still alive btw, feel free to join! :D

Smashbro29

This is still alive? I'm in there. No one else is.

Nevermind, I suck at IRC.

SUPARNOVAX

Think Mibbit is good too if you're down with web clients.

Fergus2k8

http://www.efnet.org/

On the side, there's a webchat login, just put in whatever name you want and put in #SFxT in the channel part and login :D

I don't see a single living soul here :P

I was thinking of starting a SFxT IRC chat on Efnet.

For those unaware of this, it's just basically an online chatroom for discussing SFxT.

Maybe Jibbo could create the IRC chat to make it "official" or if he's too busy, I'm happy to do so.

Only problem I can see, this may take some traffic away from this forum, so what do you guys think?

If everyone agrees with this, Myself/Jibbo/Any member of SFxT Defence Force, can go about this.

That seems to work. Let's try it for temporary purposes.

it works. should make it our backup chatroom

Fergus2k8

http://client01.chat.mibbit.com/

Use this to access efnet, efnet.org seems to be down.

Just select efnet as a server and put in w/e name and #SFxT in channel

Fergus2k8

MIBBIT IS GDLK!

Ba dump, IRC is getting more and more popular, give us a go sure!

Some very srs discussion going on here.

[18:15] * YayForYuf kicks VegaMan in the groin and smacks his posterior with a whip before twirling and saying "Do you even know who I am?" then poking him a few times, kicking him into the air and twirling, before doing a soulless stare into his soul before smashing his head into the ground

OZleon

17:04 YayForYuf I would prefer Bikini Bob to Bikini Lili

smh

Fergus2k8

Everyone come into the chat for the 25th finals!

Fergus2k8

Shameless bump.

Getting more regulars in IRC now, join us or Asuka will repeatably slam you into the ground.

JDM98Ferio

Was in there last night joined yesterday! Good place to meet good players!

YayForYuffie

The Asuka army is almost as bad as the Lili army. ¬.¬

Didn't find anyone in the chat when I was on for most of the day. How many people are there usually?

You sure you went to the right chat? If you're using Mibbit make sure use the EFNET server with #sfxt as the channel name. Don't forget the pound sign.
