Chatroom Information - All Chatters, Please Read

#1 Postby southerngale » Fri Jul 27, 2007 7:20 pm

The Storm2k chatroom is switching servers. We appreciate the service that Stormdancing has provided us over the past several years, but for various reasons, we think it's time to make a switch.

At this time, the Chatroom link at the top of the page still points to the Stormdancing browser. To enter the new room with Java, click on this link:

http://www.esper.net/pjirc/

You'll get a popup security screen and you need to select Run or Yes, depending on your browser.
That will take you to the EsperNet JAVA Chat Client. On that screen, in the window just above the word "public," type: /join #Storm2k and hit Enter. That will take you to the Storm2k chatroom.

Storm2k also has an Off Topic channel. To get in there, type: /join #Storm2k_OT
(for all non-weather related chat, enforced moreso when there's a tropical system brewing)

If you connect through mIRC or Pirch, you'll need to select the EsperNet server and then type: /join #Storm2k
If you have it set to automatically join the current Storm2k channel, go ahead and enter that way if you'd like. If in mIRC, click on File, then Select Server, and under "IRC Network:" find the EsperNet server and click on it.

windows.esper.net

If you have any problems, please reply and state your problem in as much detail as possible, and someone will help you as soon as possible. :)

For those whose browsers can't use Java, Esper has a web-based alternative. Most broswers should be able to use this:

http://windows.esper.net/publicirc/irc.cgi

Remember to change the channel name to #storm2k.

You mean "esper.net" link? That's the one I tried. It's not letting me connect.

Weird, it's working fine for me.

Use mIRC, it's still easier that way.

[23:20] Connecting...
[23:20] Logging in...
[23:20] Disconnected from irc.esper.net

This is what it says whenever i try to connect using java :uarrow:


P.S. I also used the web-based link but i noticed no familiar names...does the web based one and the java one lead to the same chatroom?

If you have the channel on "#storm2k" instead of "#esper" it should work.

Either get mIRC and follow those instructions, or try the web-based link; the Java link seems to be hit or miss sometimes.

Is this just for while it is switching servers, or is it permanent?

http://www.mirc.com

Download that, and use the irc.esper.net server. When you're done, type "/join #storm2k" ;)

Alternatively click here: http://windows.esper.net/publicirc/irc.cgi
Remember to change your nick and the room name.
