The official IRC Channel is here!

You can now interact with the majority of gamers, on our channel.
#gamers.

If you do not have a client I suggest you download xChat or Chatzilla.
-Chatzilla recommended for those who use Mozilla Firefox since it's an add-on.

Additionaly, I'd like to inform everyone that I'm not looking for any IRC operators in our channel. And I kindly request you to stop messaging me. Odds are, I'll handpick my pals for the job.

~Use this thread to talk about the IRC, issues, queries operator spots etc.

xChat tutorial below.

xChat Tutorial.

1. Download xChat from here.(For windows.)

2. Install and run xChat. You'll see the network list. Now click on the "Add+" button. And name it anything you like.



3.Click on Edit and you'll see something like this:



Now, rename the "newserver/6667" to exactly "irc.toribash.com".


4. Add your desired information and make sure you tick "Connect to network on startup".




You're good to go.

Now here are a few commands to get you started:



To register your nickname: /nickserv REGISTER nickname password
You will need a registered username to be an auto operator in channels.

To identify your password: /nickserv IDENTIFY password
Simply avoid this by filling the "Nickserv Password." with your password.

To register your own channel: /chanserv REGISTER #channel password description

/join #channel -- Makes you join channels
/op name -- Gives Operator status to 'name'
/kick name reason -- Removes user from channel.
/ban name -- Bans and mutes the user from the channel.
/msg name or /query name -- What you want to say -- Starts query with 'name'


A little bit on the advanced side:

Channel modes:


What are 'channel modes'?

Channel modes are modes which Operators can set. With them you can change settings of channel(s).
You use modes by setting them with '/mode' command.

Example: "/mode +h cake" would give 'cake' mode +h (which stands for Half-Operator).

Let's break that command down:

/mode -- Command to set modes.
+/- -- +h means that cake was given Half-Op status. -h would mean that it was taken from him.

List of usefull channel modes:



ChanServ
ChanServ allows you to register and control various aspects of channels. ChanServ can often prevent malicious users from "taking over" channels by limiting who is allowed channel operator privileges.
These are the available commands of ChanServ:[/CENTER]

IRC Etiquette

On IRC, you come into contact with many different people, with many different views. IRC isn't a place to spam, or flame. It is a place for civilized discussion.

On IRC you should:

1.)Speak clearly
2.)Be polite
3.)Use grammar
4.)Spell correctly
5.)Have respect for others and, especially, ops
6.)Be generally nice

On IRC you should NOT:
1.)Spam
2.)Flame
3.)Act like a retard
4.)Disrespect ANYONE

Thanks to Cake, Jarmund and Dargon
