I just wanted to make sure people are aware that there is a chat room, #stlweather on quakenet. It has been around for 7 or 8 years and there is generally at least a few people there, even in the bad season. The easiest way to get there is to have the chatZilla plug-in on Firefox or Seamonkey. Add the Quakenet server and once logged in to , just type /j #stlweather, and you're in. You can also just go to quaknet.org directly and go to webchat - here is the link - and type in your user name and the room name: stlweather. AndChat is a free Android app that interfaces very well with the chat for mobile (some of us also use it on our Kindles). I know Lizard has very graciously offered to build a chat room that is connected to the forum and that will probably be a very good thing for those who don't want to go through the process of joining the established chat. In the meantime, just wanted to let people know it's there. Also happy to help with any issues or problems people may be having trying to access the chat. |

Does anyone know if there is an app for I phone for the chat? IDK about the MIRC. And also, the one that I am working with Chris and the mods.. I am not sure it will work on a phone. Because of the tables used in the programming. However, There is a direct link you would be able to get JUST to the chatroom, if Chris and the mods decide to go that route. |

Some tips for AndChat:
After you download AndChat, click "add server"
Name: Quakenet
Address: irc.quakenet.org
Port: 6667
Then fill in your nickname, etc.
Any issues or questions, please let me know and I'll try to help.

Ok folks, here is the deal on the Chat Room. From the last talk, we are going to attempt my coding. Now I want to let you all know this is a Proto Type of what COULD be. We are going to use my chat room. The MiRC room will still be active. It is not going anywhere.
If this room don't seem to work, then I will work on if I can incorporate MiRC site on here.
So with that said, it will be up to you, the members to see how well this will work. All the Mods will have the ability to ban and get rid of riff raft.. I am also going to switch the room to where you have to register on the server to post. PLEASE use you handle on THIS board (Or as close you can get to it, if it is taken). You can customize you account as you seem fit.
But remember! This is Chris's board, and if he says NO, that is where it stands! Also, everything you express on the chat does NOT represent what Chris or other mods or members, NWS think. I remember a tag a while back that said "Think Before You Post". Use this warning. If you think Snow was a Hard butt on Moderation, I am worst.
Ok, now with all the formalities out of the way...
We will see if it works. Check back in a day or so

Check back in a day or so For the purpose of clarity, when you say the "MiRC" chat room, are you referring to our chat room on Quakenet on IRC? mIRC is a chat client to interface with IRC (just don't want to confuse people). Or, are you referring to another chat room? While #stlweather on quakenet has many people from here, it is separate from this forum. Just trying to avoid confusion. Thanks! |
