Irc

[croxis]

We are going to need an IRC room to conduct real time chats. Two actually - one will be a password protect room for our members only, and the other would be a public room for embassy stuff. IRC server is irc.irc-chat.net and #civfanatics is the main channel for those who don't know. I can maintain both if needed.

And on a random topic will this be traditional PBEM or will it be pitboss?

 

[BCLG100]

i think we have to decide that when they post it at the UN

 

[croxis]

what do you mean?

 

[Sweetacshon]

He means another poll.

where do we get this irc room from

 

[classical_hero]

We could easily chat to each other via other sources. I would actually prefer to chat via either AIm or MSN.

 

[RegentMan]

I have MSN, but could do IRC if it was necessary.

 

[Karl Townsend]

so someone tell me WTH is irc

IRC stands for internet relay chat - visit the chatroom for this site as an example. The reason why i suggest IRC is that the room will always be avalable, the ops will have far more control over what goes on in the room and who can access it, and you will have access to my wonderful quote script! It worked really well for the Civ3 MSDG.

what do you mean?

rik or dave or one of them will bring up the topic sometime, at which time RM will then post a poll, we'll all vote and maybe in a few months the game can start!

Setting up a chatroom takes a poll? There really wont be a need of one until some more heavy stuff like prepping a constitution but we seriously don't need to vote for everything. Will we have to vote what the password is? If its hidden or not?

Anyways its made. chan is #cfc_isdg, hidden, and password protected with the current password of test.

 

[classical_hero]

We could do the same thing via MSN. Chatting through that is very similar to IRC. That way we do not need to set up a dedicated IRC channel. Having all us put our MSN addresses up will help in getting chats up and ready. I can chat in any of the five major chat arenas. I have AIM, ICQ, MSN, Yahoo, and IRC accounts. I also have X fire, if that counts.

 

[RegentMan]

MSN or IRC for me.

 

[Karl Townsend]

id rather msn

 

[Kuningas]

I prefer IRC. You can't msn with Linux

 

[BCLG100]

Well we could do a bit of both really

 

[Karl Townsend]

poll?

shalle we?

 

[Emp.Napoleon]

MSN and AIM are the best, and secure.

 

[croxis]

can msn and aim have multiple ops? we will have a hard time with embassies if we require other teams to have to down load a client. With IRC we can just direct them to use the sites java chat. And how is IRC not secure?
