Earthmama Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Hi folks, I know this is off topic for this board but we've developed a nice little community here. Before the merger, there was a chat channel that was created on the Shadowlands because there was a great many of us that were based on that server, or like me, made a new character just so we could interact and play together. I've gone ahead and created a new custom chat channel for those of us on these forums who have found ourselves thrown together on the same server. This is for the Shadowlands server, type /cjoin fanfictionchat I've created the channel on both Imperial and Republic sides. Looking forward to seeing a bunch of you in game. If you don't happen to be on Shadowlands.....re-roll...(joking) Add to this thread so that other like minded people can connect with you in game.

Vesaniae Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Argh, I wish I could participate in this. Stupid computer that can't run TOR... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irishfino Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Argh, I wish I could participate in this. Stupid computer that can't run TOR... It might be easier for all of us if we just started an IRC channel. That way, we wouldn't need to be in the game to talk, everyone can run it on their computers (and write at the same time, lol), and it's easier to get everyone in one room in an IRC chat than it is trying to wrangle servers together on TOR.

irishfino Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Hey, that would be cool! And then I would have another way to procrastinate on everything ever! Heh, alright, I'll get one registered. IRC is free and there's no room space limit, there's a list of people who are in the room, and IRC is awesome... lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morgani Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Despite being born just before the internet age, I have no idea how to use IRC.... Go me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irishfino Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 IRC is pretty easy to use. I use Trillian, which logs me into different chat clients (AIM, Yahoo!, etc). Let me get the channel up and running and I'll give you more details. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irishfino Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Double Post! Alright, the channel is located on this server: irc.blitzed.org. You'll need a client to access it. I recommend Trillian because I have experience with it, but Pidgin works as well. Both are your standard multi-service messaging programs. They are very easy to use and have a guided intro upon first installation. The channel name is #torfiction. After you get IRC up and running on your computer, type into a chatbox /join #torfiction. You should pop into the room and see me there! Let me know if you need help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vesaniae Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 (edited) I can't seem to figure out how to get it to work on Trillian. :/ I've connected to IRC, but I can't figure out how to get to the room? Edit: Actually, I think I've figured it out. Edited September 19, 2012 by Vesaniae Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alright, on Trillian at the very top right hand corner you should see a little blue icon with a quote mark in it. That's your IRC. Click on it, it'll pop up a drop down, select join a room, type #torfiction and you're golden. Edited September 19, 2012 by irishfino Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imnotawitch Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Something that worked for me, click the irc icon that should be to the right of your name now, and select "join channel." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imnotawitch Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 As far as I can tell, there are the fanfic channels in the shadowlands, but also an irc channel for people of all servers. If you're having trouble with the irc, I can help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
