IRC-Chatroom Feedback and Support
 
Given the go ahead by Steve to create this.

Well as most of you know, chat is now up and running, though I don't really see many on there...which is a bit sad as its a great place to just talk and chat if you don't want to wait ages for feedback in a threat or over PM.

Accessing Chat

Well to get there, all you need to do is go to chat in the toolbar above, a drop down will apear giving you a few options on how to access it.

Java chat will open up chat on your current window.
Java Chat (pop up) will open up chat on a pop up window.
Chat with mIRC will open up chat on mIRC if you have it.
Download mIRC script will allow you to download mIRC onto your PC. (Advisable)

mIRC

mIRC unlike chat, gives you multiple options, sorta like MSN and AIM, you can give it your own personal touch...in other words...it's better than Java because it gives you more options and settings.

Rules

Just to let you know that all PC rules apply, so that means, no flaming, no spamming, no cursing ext.

PC rules can be found here: Pokecommunity Rules

There are a few Rules that you do have to follow, such as keeping things G rated, so that means no sexual discussion and no cursing, such things can result in a ban. Though these bans do not last long, the more you do it, the worse your ban time will be, continue to break rules and it will result in a perma ban from chat.

Also, do not flood, in other words, don’t post over and over again without giving others the chance to reply, do this to fast and you will be auto kicked.

The following chat server rules apply:
- - No Excessive Connections (Commonly known as Cloning).
- - No Automated Downloading/Queuing Scripts.
- - No War Bots or War Scripts.
- - No Mass Advertising.
- - No Nuking or DoS (Denial of Services) attacks.
- - No Harassment of fellow users.
- - No Pornography.
- - No Flooding.
- - No Warez, XDCC, or beta (illegal/copyrighted software/media) channels.
- - No Unauthorized XDCC bots join the #help channel for details
- - No Botnets
- - No Pre-release or illegal movies, mp3s or software
- - No Bottler/Irc-Ork Clients.

Nicknames

Now, if you have mIRC, you will be aloud to register a nick name just by simple clicking the command in your toolbox. I have SPPScript, so Ill use that as an example for now.

To register a nick, all I have to do is the following:

SPPScript > Services > NickServ > Register

It will then ask you to insert Password and E-mail, and then all you have to do when you log in is Identify yourself:

SPPScript > Services > NickServ > Identify

For Java, it’s a bit different, instead of clicking on the commands you will have to type it.

To change your nick name: /nick <new_nick> without the <>'s
To register: /msg nickserv register {your_password_here} {your_email } without the {}’s
Identify: /msg nickserv IDENTIFY {Password} without the {}’s

Registering your nick name will ensure that no one else will be able to use it, and that it will be easy to identify you, you can register as many nicknames as you like.

Chat people

Ill just give you a run up on the people you will discover in chat.

In chat you will discover a list of members on the right side of your screen; these are the active members currently on chat at that moment. You will also notice that some nicknames will have symbols at their sides; you will find the list below and their meanings:

@: The big bosses, this symbol next to a members name basically means that he/she runs everything, PPN Steve is one of those bosses, and whatever they say goes.

%: Means halfopped, below that of the ‘@’’s but still have the power to voice, and ban you.

+: Means Voiced, sometimes this allows you to be able to talk in the chat, but sometimes…it just gives you that extra snazzy look XD

People without the symbols beside their names are just your average members.

Okay, I think that about covers it…other than that, discuss anything chat related here!

now people should'nt have any questions
about the chat room,someone should sticky this

aRedMoon December 13th, 2005 3:12 PM

You should also speak English and STOP THE SPAMMING.

*glares at some people in the chat*

It's not a spamhole, like some people have been treating it.

pokejungle December 13th, 2005 3:17 PM

mIRC has spyware~ <_<;

The guy at Best Buy yelled at me for using it.

aRedMoon December 13th, 2005 3:22 PM

mIRC does not have spyware. The guy at Best Buy is an idiot if he said it does.

Recknin December 13th, 2005 3:39 PM

I already had that opinion of him =]

aRedMoon December 13th, 2005 6:21 PM

mIRC by itself has no spyware.

HOWEVER, it is possible to get spyware through mIRC I believe. People sending junk files and such, if you're on networks that get a lot of spambots.

Dejatoons doesn't have that problem, however, so you're pretty safe.

pokejungle December 13th, 2005 6:52 PM

Personally I don't mind the java application ;D

Doesn't bother me much~

Cherrim December 14th, 2005 5:17 AM

*stickies this* o_o; There aren't many in Q&F and this belongs at the top of the forum so...

Spectrum December 17th, 2005 2:15 AM

Um, I was just banned with NO explanation and for no apparent reason either.

-_-

Kylie-chan December 17th, 2005 2:54 AM

Apparently you were banned for overly negative stuff about PC. The chat is a part of PC, remember~

Um, this was for something different.

^ I wasn't aware it wasn't allowed. A reason would've been appreciated at the time, but okay.

pokejungle December 17th, 2005 5:58 AM

PC's chat has like...addicting 8D

I'm a huge fan of it XD Glad it's here~ Just putting in my comments ^_^

Spectrum December 17th, 2005 5:59 AM

I told people to give it a try earlier, but no D;

aRedMoon December 17th, 2005 8:54 AM

Yeah, Jake, reasons why you kick people would be useful, instead of just your name =/

Shadowfaith December 31st, 2005 9:31 AM

Why the freck is my address banned? ;;

EDIT: No worries now...sorted XP

Eon-Rider December 31st, 2005 9:36 AM

Is it possible to change the password after you register?

I kinda forgot to take out the { and }.
Silly me.

Supreme Edgeboy Max January 15th, 2006 3:10 AM

May I please request, that something be done about typos .. I believe Ookami knows what I am on about and I don't want to repeat myself now. v_v

Shadowfaith January 15th, 2006 3:14 AM

Oh god, you can't help typos, they happen because you miss place a finger or something, and on chat it is not possible to change them. I'm sorry but nothing can be helped with that matter.

At least do something, try to MAKE SURE things like this don't happen again? <_<

First off; I know you haven't ever visited the chatroom, thus you have no idea whatsoever about what you're complaining about. I figure your little friend must've told you this `n that, but honestly, if you take offense at such things, don't even bother going. It's as simple as that. :)

And secondly, there is absolutly nothing that can be done about "typos" in a chatroom, so what you're suggesting is a lost cause.

Shadowfaith January 15th, 2006 3:24 AM

How can you make sure that nothing like that happens again...give me a suggestion, because I sure as hell don't have one.

Word censoring or something? How should I know, you're the staff member.. and I believe I've seen Jake ask right here in this thread, to keep discussions G-Rated? I don't think calling names .. TYPOS OR NOT .. should be allowed at all. So there.



I'm going to ignore your post Charade, its a client's request that I'm doing. Fine, now you all know. <_<

Shadowfaith January 15th, 2006 3:39 AM

You can't censor typoes, they are used only for cursing that is too harsh for a G rated chat room. It's not possible to censor every typo you can ever make. Just because I am a staff member doesn't mean that I can magicaly do everything that is asked of me. You are the one that started the complaint and so you should have suggestion to back yourself up. Until then there is little that can be done.
