<div class="IPBDescription">I am an mirc idiot.</div>It's been a long time since I actually got mIRC to work, and I wouldn't mind chatting with you crazy folks in the NS channel. The problem is I cannot connect, and I don't speak mIRC talk. None of the ports, servers, or channels I've tried work.

I remember once my loser of a friend got me connected by typing in some crazy stuff in the options menu.

Could someone help the shadow demon out?

    Hmm, I don't use mIRC, but if you need to use it badly, you can go to a place like <a href="http://www.gamesnet.net." target="_blank">http://www.gamesnet.net.</a> Then click on the navagation for either a Java or HTML based irc.

    Could you copy/paste the stuff that appears in your status window when you try to connect?

    Thanks Molec. I'm glad I paid all that money for people to use it. Please email me your replacement software so I can install it post haste.

    I use mIRC for IRC and Trillian for everything else. I like all the nifty functions in mIRC.

    To connect to the Natural Selection IRC room you need to spin around on your chair six times while whispering "frmis" under your breath.

    Of you could just:

    A) Hit the wee button up the top left with the hammer and folder on it.

    B) Click on the "Connect" bit at the top of the white box on the left and use the dropdown box there to select "Gamesnet Random east US server" (Or west, doesn't really matter). Then click the big-ole "Connect to IRC server button.

    C) Wait until it has finished it's magic that is logging on to irc.gamesnet.net, type "/connect #naturalselection" into the bottom of the large status window. This will pop up the NS channel!

    Trillian doesn't work for more than one user. Therefore, I can't use it, cause this is a shared computer and everyone has their own ICQ and MSN identities to keep track of.
