Title: IRC Channel
Post by: m0d on June 30, 2008, 11:20:14

I've opened the #nitrotracker IRC channel permanently. Tobias had it open a few days ago but didn't set it up to stay, but now it's open for business and has the resident Espernet trackerscene bot resident.


Automatic Idle people indicator:

If you talk, you will be set +v, if you idle for more than 45 minutes, you will be set -v.

Seen System:

Track down IRC members using !seen. As the bot crosses nearly all of the scene channels on Espernet, this is extremely functional with a comprehensive history log, tracking as far back as 2 years.

TinyURL:

Post a long link, get a tiny URL returned if it's over a length which would make some IRC clients balk at long URLs (think Ebay).

---------

Come and join the channel. Sit idle, and grow the channel. Growing is important, even if you don't chat, because once it reaches a critical mass of idlers, chat traffic can occur spontaneously. :)

If you would like to mingle with other musicians and trackers alike, you are welcome to also join the #modarchive IRC channel, also on the same network.


Joining: Requirements.

Windows IRC Client: The most used for Windows is mIRC. http://mirc.com It's registerware after 30 days but you can still use it for well past the limit. I'm on my 130th day on the client at work :)

Linux IRC Client: kVIRC, BitchX, IRSSI, XChat. Take your pick.

Multiplatform: Pidgin IM Client.


To join the channel(s):

/server irc.esper.net
/join #nitrotracker
/join #modarchive
