    We have a web-based irc client:

    http://pong.uwstout.edu/cgi-bin/cgiirc/irc.cgi

    for those of you who don't have a standalone client.

    Bump.

    More people is a must!!! This is the fastest way to talk to your fellow PONG'ers and to get questions answered fast! Most of the time it's just Fragmeister and I, but later on in the evening there are more people on.

    Come on in the channel and chill with us!

    I made a little modification to the who's online extension so that it now shows how many people (approximately) are on irc. Please let me know if it seems to be causing any problems with the forum at all.

    Seems to change now, but it looks like it's counting an extra person that isn't there. Just something I noticed.

    Yeah well, I don't really need IRC on a daily basis, just wanted a client without having to download and install anything. Seems to be working so far.

    as much as i hate to admit it i'm an IRC newb lol but i do creep around bash.org regularly :P

    how does that web based one work? i tried logging in but i got

    -OperServ- The session limit for your host localhost has been exceeded.
    *** Closing Link virta[localhost] services.pong.uwstout.edu (Killed (OperServ (Session limit exceeded)))
    *** Disconnected from IRC (click to reconnect)

  8.  

    the web client sucks ass -- I changed it to a new one that's java-based now, so we shouldn't have these problems now. http://pong.uwstout.edu/pjirc/

    it took me a while, but for the people who are new and want to start chatting, can you guys put up some directions on exactly what to do if you have a client, or if using chatzilla

    PJIRC -

    To connect to the pong channel using the pjirc client, simply type "/join #pong".
    To change your name once you've joined the channel, type "/nick whatever".
    (without the quotes)

    Chatzilla -

    Here is a quick and dirty way to get connected to the pong channel using Chatzilla:
    In the Chatzilla client click Chatzilla, the open Preferences.
    Click Global Settings, then open the Startup tab.
    Under Auto-connect URLs, click Add.
    Then add irc://pong.uwstout.edu:6667 and irc://pong.uwstout.edu/pong

    After that, you should automatically connect to the pong chatroom every time you open Chatzilla.

    FYI: on PJIRC, I get "Unable to connect : java.net.ConnectException : Connection refused: connect "
