I would like to suggest creating a "chatroom". I saw one on the Che-Lives forum a while ago, and it was pretty good. I recommend we get one.

Like, an IRC `chatroom', or one of those "real time" chatboxes like they have in vBulletin?

the second one, I think.

We had one, early on. It was fun.

yeah, we had one a long time ago. If there is enough interest I can register a channel for us

EDIT: and IRC channel, people will have to download and learn how to use an irc program

I also suggest we get an IRC channel...

No interest = I'm not registering a channel

Well, we can get an IRC channel and put a password on it, gonna take us 15 minutes to set up.

But such would require IP banning Rolly in pre-emptively though.

Interest.

interest in an IRC channel

Interest in anything.

The problem is teaching/getting people to use an IRC program. But I'm up for it, I've set up channels before

I was gonna say, you think half the people onthis board are actually capable of using irc

14 year old girls can use IRC. Those who cant grasp it, do we really want them using it?

A chat room would be nice. IRC would do, im sure.

Very well, #u-p @ rizon.net is up. There is also a webchat on their homepage for those who can't figure out irc. I've just registered the channel, nothing fancy. I'll be idling so.. whatever.

I'm up for it.

The channel is up and the only person I've seen there is rolly trying some command I didn't recognize.. trying to hide his hostmask or something

Well frankly I'm not sure there are actually enough people here to sustain interest in an active IRC channel.

But yeah, I'm semi-interested.

Hmmm. I just visited the channel there today. It's pretty empty. Completely empty infact.

Oh, and incidentally you should give me ops. Just because.

Indeed. Out of the past 5 times or so that I've been there, the channel has been empty 100% of the time.

my fault, I forgot to add joining #U-P to my list of channels to join. Like someone said, u-p doesn't have enough posters to make a viable irc channel. Maybe weekly scheduled chats are a possibility tho..
