Is a metal forums irc channel feasable

[Owen]

SOrry,

But what is irc??

[Wyrm]

A chat program, no? Good idea for a large community; MF needs some growing to do in the mean time.

[GumbY]

yeah its a chat program basicly and yeah maybe consider it when theres alot more ppl for sure

[Tommy Tee]

if this did happen i think a DC++ hub would be better so we can chat and if we mentioned something on the forum people can then download it off whoever mentioned it (which would be convenient with obscure stuff). but for now it seems pointless because of so few regular users

[Hélder]

i think that it's a good ideato put a shedule as that one,if you could spend months adding arrangements and special touches to this forum,the result will be merely good.guiding the label with your professionalism and know-how, using state-of-the-art technology as IRC resulted in a rich, which will carry the torch for worldwide forum metal hub from now on.Goodwork

IRC is Internet Relay Chat. It's basically multiplayer notepad
No images, just text and commands. Can be good once you get to know it.

mIRC is the most commonly used program to access IRC channels.

If you have Mozilla Firefox (which you should have...), you can use ChatZilla. I use CZ and it works for me

Any questions, feel free to post or PM me. Keep in mind I've never actually hosted a channel, and I wouldn't have a clue as how to set up a channel on a server, but I think all you need to do is get some IRC bots (Google a bit) and put them in the server.
