I can't connect... is it because i'm not a good spammer?

Clara Listensprechen · « **Reply #161 on:** February 21, 2011, 02:15:24 PM »

Me neither--keeps timing out.

Old topic, but why is this restored from the recycle bin?

(plus this indicates you guys have a recycle bin on this forum

)

Kindred · « **Reply #164 on:** March 09, 2011, 04:24:00 PM »

I accidentally deleted it instead of just deleting the single spam post.
(and that, right there is why we have the recycle bin turned on)

Antes · « **Reply #166 on:** June 21, 2011, 08:55:20 AM »

Network List > Add > (Name it like SMF Chat)
Then click edit you see "newserver/6667" edit it to "irc.villageirc.net"
Then you see Favorite Channels (click ... button) then Add button and type #simplemachines (Caution! not ## only one #)

Then save all and hit connect

The network is not included in the default list of servers for XChat. See the post right above your last one for information on how to add it.

Illori · « **Reply #173 on:** June 22, 2011, 09:27:04 AM »

you were on irc yesterday just fine. irc is not used that much so i dont understand why you are trying so hard to it to work for you. most people dont talk at all on irc but a few times every few days if that.

lorth · « **Reply #174 on:** June 22, 2011, 10:12:53 AM »

also, you dont use xchat

Ok, it's proven to be harder to set up than I had hoped. So used to two clicks and everything works out of the box. This time I had to click about 4 things and actually type stuff to work.

I basically downloaded Xchat from http://huw.org.uk/smfirc
Install it.

Once installed, just create a new connection, call it for example SimpleMachines.
Go in there to add a server (irc.villageirc.net).
Specify channel to be #simplemachines

Then you should be able to connect (just like Antes described in his/her earlier post on June 21, 2011).
For some reason after connection, it still asked me to /join #simplemachines
in order to enter that channel. So I manually /join ed and that's it. Just 7 or 8 people in there. Quite an anticlimax.

I vaguely remember Mozilla has an IRC plugin which lets people type something like irc://irc.villageirc.net#simplemachines and that'll let you connect from within Mozilla. Forgot what plugin it was. But that's probably gonna be easier than using XChat.

By the way one of the earlier posters mentioned
http://www.simplemachines.org/teamchat/pjirc/
That link no longer exists.

@bonexx5: there are loads of good mods. A good one to start with may be Bad Behaviour which blocks spammers.

Sorry to bump this, but is anyone able to connect through Opera's build-in IRC client? 'cuz I'm not

EDIT: Took some time, I'm in.
