Try irc.everywherechat.com Port: 6667 I just installed the Integrated Chat from the SMF website, so I'm not sure of the specifics. The direct link via a browser is: http://irc.everywherechat.com:8000/?room=GolfHosFrom their FAQ: Q: How do I connect using mIRC? A: To connect using mIRC or another IRC client, simply use your client's options to connect to irc.everywherechat.com on port 6667 or 7000. We also have a copy of mIRC available for you that is already configured for EveryWhereChat.com. You can download it here Previous Top Next Q: Do you support the use of IRC clients? A: EveryWhereChat does support IRC clients. We have tested the following clients. mIRC ircZ pIRCh Miranda IM ( http://www.miranda-im.org) Trillian ircle Server: irc.everywherechat.com Port: 6667 |

The problem with this is that if someone in the IRC world already has your nickname, you can't have it too.

Ah, I didn't realize how that worked. There was an option to automatically append a suffix to your GolfHos username to get around the unique nickname issue.
The default config of the chat used "_abbrv" or something like that, so my IRC name would be "dystopia_abbrv". Would you prefer if I enable the automatic suffix? Any ideas for a suffix? I'm not sure that "dystopia_ho, Salamander_ho, stroh_ho" is the best idea.
Another option might be to find a chat option that avoids IRC and is isolated, but some people might want to use their own IRC client.
Or I could just tweak it to not carryover the GolfHos username automatically and make people login manually.

I seem to be able to log on just fine, but there's never anyone there.  |
