[INFO] Guide on the tranceaddict chat room

Server: irc.webchat.org chan: #tranceaddicts for those of you who have a irc client.

Right i was a bit bored and saw a few threads recently asking about the chat room, so hers a step by step guide, hope it works ok!


1. Download mirc from www.mirc.com

2. Install mirc and run mirc

3. Uncheck the circled text box, and close the small message box by clicking on the x


4. Enter in your name, email (i suggest a web based service like hotmail, to reduce spam), nickname and an alternative (i suggest using your nickname with a _ or ^ on the end of it)


5. From the drop down list select the webnet random server


6. Select options, i suggest the following settings: enable "conect on start up" & "reconect on disconection", and disabling "popup conect dialog on start up"


7. Select the perform options, tick the "enable perform on connect" tick box. Click on the "add" button and select "webnet" and press ok


8. If the drop down box to the left of the "add" button doesnt change to say "webnet" select it from the drop down list. In the perform box type "/umode -M" and press enter


9. Click on "ok" on the main options.

10. Mirc should then conect to the irc server, if you do not see a load of text appear then try closing mirc and opening it again.

11. Now hopefully you will be conected to the server, you need to register your nickname (its not necessart but recomended)

12. To do this type "/msg nickserv register MypassworD [email protected]" replacint the email and password for your own

13. Up to 15 minuts later a email will arive asing you to verify it, in the email will be instructions on how to verify your nickname.

14. After verifying your nickname goto "file-options" and select the "perform" option

15. After the "/umode -M" line write the following "/ns identify MypassworD" obviousley replacing MypassworD for your password. This will save you having to identify your self manually when you load mirc up.

16. After the "/ns identify MypassworD" write "/join #tranceaddicts"



17. The folowing script can be added as well, as at random times the nickname process asks for the nicknames to be identified again, this script will identify your nick automacally, replacing password for your own obviousley. (thanks to ProjectT for this )

quote:

on 1:NOTICE:This nickname is owned by someone else. You must select a different one.*:?:{ /nickserv identify password }

After this is done you will need to close down mirc and restart it, hopefully you will be conected to the tranceaddict chat! enjoy the stay.

[UKTA CHAT]
The UKTA chat channel is on the same server as the tranceaddict one so its simple to come and join #UKTA

1. Goto the file menu, select options, select perform and on the drop down box select WEBNET.

2. Under the "/join #tranceaddict" type "/join #ukta"



3. Restart mirc and you should now be chatting in the #UKTA channel as well

Exactly as for #ukta but replace #ukta with #tota.
ontario / toronto chat room
[AUTA CHAT]
The AUTA chat is located on a different irc server - irc.austnet.org chan - #tranceaddict

To setup mirc to conect to multiple servers on start up a little work is needed.

1. load up mirc and let it conect to the tranceaddict chat as normal

2. press the "alt" key and the "r" key at the same time, and the folowing box will appear (there may be some text in here allready depending on if you have installed any scripts etc)


In that text box the following code will need to be added :

quote:

on *:start:{ server irc.webchat.org server -m irc.austnet.org }

After entering in that text press ok

3. Goto the file menu - options then select perform. Click on the "add" button and select "austnet" and press ok

4. If the drop down box to the left of the "add" button doesnt change to say "austnet" select it from the drop down list. In the perform box type "/join #tranceaddict"

5. Then click ok and restart mirc, hopefully it should conect to the 2 servers and you should be chatting in the AUTA #tranceaddict, the main #tranceaddict chat (and any other regional chat channles you decide to chat in

I dont know how the irc.asutnet.org servers handel nick name registrations atm so could a AUTA give a few lines of instructions maybee

aye but atleast the newbies can get into chat easily enough, and if they come into #ukta asking for mp3's then its kick ban time

also are there any other regional forum irc chans that could be added to the list?

I think theres an aussie one....
EDIT: it's #tranceaddict on ausnet
