There is already a chat room set up and I am currently sat in it

Details :

Server : eu.undernet.org
Room : #poi

To use it you will need a chat client, I suggest going to www.xchat.org and downloading the appropriate xchat for your operating system.

The look through the server list and select undernet (connect to eu.undernet.org). This can be done by either clicking on the correct server or by chosing 'new server' from the 'xchat' menu and then typing '/server eu.undernet.org'

When you are connected to the server type '/join #poi' and hey presto you should be in the room.

I used to use this for quite a while and was chatting to some NZ and Brits but I havent been on too much lately, you will find Woody on there too (most of the time)

enjoy, Mark P

Well I know the world doesnt revolve around me but, I was thinking more on the lines of something you dont have to download. Like a Yahoo style chat room. Some of us use work computers, and we cant always download programs.

Ray, great idea! has it been considered here before, and how easy is it for Malcolm to find & implement?

Mark P, thanx for your method for the existing room, here i'm with Ray for a no-brain user-friendly off-the-site-page, indeed, on-a-site-page chat as other communities have, would hugely liven up so much. . .introductions, social chat, events coordinating among members. . .

molten cheers,

my other message board uses this same format and the guy that runs it says it is easy cheezy to put a link to an aol chatroom on the site.

There are no obstacles only challenges.
