    If you didn't see it in the other thread, we now have an IRC room. This is an online chatroom where you can talk about just about anything.

    To get to it, follow the following steps:

    1. Read the Rules

    General Rules:
    No flooding
    No hacking
    No illegal material
    No pornography
    No spamming/advertising
    No spreading viruses
    Do not attempt to take over the channel
    Keep personal attacks to a minimum
    Do not be a buzzkill
    Ops (Mods) Will Not:
    Break any of the general rules themselves
    Kick/Ban without reason - each Kick/Ban must be delivered with a reason message, which must show which rule has been broken

    These rules may be enforced by any means at the ops' disposal, which includes but is not limited to: warning messages, kick from the room, making a user unable to speak for a period of time, temporarily banning a user, permanently banning a user, and reporting a user to a QuakeNet administrator.

    Should the general community determine that you are nothing but a nuisance to the chat, you may be banned without necessarily breaking any rules.

    2. Get an IRC client
    The most popular client is mIRC, which can be found at http://www.mirc.com . Download, install, and open it.

    3. Connect to QuakeNet
    To do this, type /server us.quakenet.org or go to File-Select Server and select QuakeNet from the drag-down server list, then hit the yellow connect (lightning bolt) button.

    4. Join the fiveeight Channel
    To do this, type /join #fiveeight

    5 (optional). Register with with the server
    To do this, type /msg Q hello youremail youremail . Further instructions will be provided by the server.

    And that's it! Mods, could you please sticky this?

    Edit by Thalagyrt: The IRC Link in the navigation bar now automatically joins you up here.

    +v means you can talk, +o makes you an op of the channel so you can kick and ban people, set modes and stuff

    Re: DTF.com Chatroom

    Thanks for proving my point about the maturity of the mods in the chat.

    And I dont think being kicked out of a chat is the end of the world, I just dont like being forced out of a chatroom by someone who thinks its funny, only to come back in and have it happen later. Im there to talk, not play games with kids. I dont have a problem not being in there; I have better ways of spending my time.

    Good day, sir.

    Re: DTF.com Chatroom

    KiGlow, I apologize if the chat was not fun for you. The intent was for it to be a joke, but we're a new chat, and don't yet have established rules for behavior of the users or the ops. kid_gloves was testing a script that kicked upon the saying of a certain word; it was not meant to be anything personal against you.

    In the coming days, we will have established rules, and will probably reduce the number of ops in the chat. Bear in mind we're just testing the waters right now, and I hope one bad chat isn't enough to keep you from the room.
