There has been a recent interest in an Ichigo's Chat, so it was suggested to me to run an IRC server. For anyone who doesn't know, IRC (Internet Relay Chat) is a way to easily talk with multiple people in a chat room. It's like a giant group chat in MSN, except without MSN! It's a great way to relax or kill time while at work.

Please leave comments, suggestions, etc in this thread if you have any suggestions. We are just beta-testing this, so it seems to be killing the forums then we'll shut it down. I'll be idling almost all the time, so feel free to poke me if I'm around! I'm working on getting some simple services (such as !seen and !next), so stay tuned.

Connect via the web
- http://ichigos.com/irc. Enter a name and chat away! Works best with IE, although FF and Opera should work.

Connect via an IRC client
- Server: ichigos.com
- Port: 6667
- Channel #ichigos

Happy chatting! ^_^

Now we need our own Ichigo bot =P

Hiei
June 24th, 2005, 01:59 pm
can i host trivia? I guess i'll come back to irc.

Note - If you want to prevent anyone from stealing your name in irc, you can just simply register it.

/msg NickServ REGISTER (password) (e-mail adress)

NOTE - you put your password and e-mail adress WITHOUT the parenthesis

make sure your on your nick name before you use this command.

whoa, its been a while since ive eben on IRC... use to have mIRC but i had to delete it because it became a problem... like... a drinking problem X_X lol

so were gonna have an ichigo-bot?!?! lol awesome. Haha i tried making a bot one time... when i was like... 10. lmao didnt work to well.

So Gand, It's on its own SERVER!? like not just a channel on some other server? thats cool

Edit: oooh, without parentheses (when u register)

'Cause most of us here at Ichigo's aren't regular IRC users, instead they check up in the browser version, see nobody speaking and leave.

If more people here actually used IRC and leave it on all day, we will get more action.

June 28th, 2005, 01:26 pm
any chance of putting emoticons in or is that too complicated?

Neko Koneko
June 28th, 2005, 01:32 pm
IRC doesn't really have emoticons. Maybe some clients do but not this webbased one.

Zach
June 28th, 2005, 02:11 pm
Yes it does. Just go to options and change it so that : ) actually becomes smilies. You can change fonts and sounds in there too. Thats probably why my apostrophe's were coming out a bit funky.

RD
June 28th, 2005, 04:08 pm
I have another idea we could use instead of IRC, A chatbox. I saw one at a diffrent site and it was pritty cool. We could use one of those instead of IRC because it can go right on the fourm page...

This is the link to get it (http://saybox.co.uk/index.php?ref=acomod) and I just found out its called a saybox.I like chatbox better.

Neko Koneko
June 28th, 2005, 04:09 pm
IRC is fine, we don't need a chatbox.

Zucriy Amsuna
June 28th, 2005, 09:23 pm
What exactly is this? I am so confused... :frusty:

RD
June 28th, 2005, 09:36 pm
its basicly a ichigos chat room.

Zucriy Amsuna
June 28th, 2005, 11:27 pm
I went there, but I couldn't understand anything... @_@ And now when I try to go ther again, it says that the name is already in use... Does that mean there's another person in there with my name?!

RD
June 29th, 2005, 12:15 am
O_0 I dun no!?

Just go there, and wait a while for people to talk. After a while, a flooding of people will talk. BTW, if you dont know, you type at the bottom of the screen.

Gand
June 29th, 2005, 05:58 am
I don't like chatboxes, it makes the forums messy and ASF has one :P

And yep, you can turn on emoticons for cgi-irc in the options, I just have them off by default.

Eternal
June 29th, 2005, 08:37 pm
why cant you use color?
but you can use bold and underline for text.

blood
June 29th, 2005, 09:57 pm
not a bad idea means i could talk to some of you while i have to work =)

so hopefully be able to se you all again yay

Hiei
June 29th, 2005, 11:36 pm
since some people are confused on IRC, here will be some commands that may help.
(NOTE - I am not good in explaining things so if you feel confused, please ask me.)

/me (put something here)

the /me is an action where it is used to express emotion or etc.
ex. (/me kills you. It will come out to (name) kills you. It can be used to express feelings or actions. So this could replace smileys in IRC.)

/nick (desiered name here)

the /nick is where you can change your nickname into another name if your name is already taken in IRC.

Kou
June 30th, 2005, 04:24 am
more importantly, we need people to turn up more often and stay =_=

cgi-irc isn't really ment for slow connections... try using mIRC or another IRC client instead.

It loads fine for me on dial-up, a few seconds and the login appears

Guys, when you come in, stay a little more than five or ten minutes - I do look at the window from time to time and then I find I've missed somebody by about a minute or two X_X

Noir7
July 6th, 2005, 04:41 pm
No? We didn't use it because it would take away the small-talk from this forum. Turns out it didn't, but there's not many people online anyway..

Zach
August 12th, 2005, 09:25 pm
No one appears to use it anymore though.

I just saw Sinbios from the irc server! ^^ old times, old times...

Maestrosetti
August 15th, 2005, 01:11 pm
Nobody goes on anymore.

Sinbios
August 28th, 2005, 07:11 am
Actually, I think only two regulars (Zero, balt) left. That leaves two regulars (me, Gand) :P.

Anyway, the point of IRC isn't to just be able to hop on and chat. The idea is that you idle until a topic you wish to discuss comes up. Or maybe you start one. Whatever. But a lot of people don't understand this, goes on for 5 minutes, finds the channel dead, then leaves. Of course nothing will ever come up this way.

On another note, Gand, how come /ns doesn't work on your server?

random_tangent
August 28th, 2005, 08:42 am
Because its the middle of the night for a lot of people when I'm mostly on, I don't bother much, especially when like now I'm busy with school ^^ The times I pop on are AT school, and then I leave pretty hastily generally because the teacher's decided to come see what we're up to.. hopefully in the holidays it might pick up a little

Zero
August 28th, 2005, 10:29 pm
*nods* What Sinbios said.

I have the channel on autojoin, so.... I'm around.

[19:06:12] <Reason> Guess not

Well... after a while I realized that it goes idle for about 4 days, and then a topic jumps up, then back to idle... It just seems kinda pointless to be on if you only get 1/96 hours of talk time.

Sinbios
October 6th, 2005, 01:58 am
Maybe if people don't quit within a minute of joining because nobody seems to be talking during that minute...

You have no idea how offended I was. ONCE YOU ENTER IRC YOU DO NOT LEAVE! THAT'S AGAINST RULE #1321.

Upon typing /join [CHANNEL] you have made covenant with the server and agree to merge into the thread. The user that complies/joins a channel must remain inside the Channel until covenant is completed.

Hiei
March 22nd, 2006, 10:48 pm
You have no idea how offended I was. ONCE YOU ENTER IRC YOU DO NOT LEAVE! THAT'S AGAINST RULE #1321.

That law cannot be accepted because

1) Ircs are made for people to chat and go as they please.
2) No one has been prosecuted when they break that law. Then that means that the law doesnt count

It does... but most of us have become a little tired of no-one being in there! I log in when I happen to be on Mirc and REMEMBER to, but there's NEVER anyone in my time zone.

If the forums close again activity will shoot up XD When we were updating, there was a pile of us in there waiting for the announcement that it was back up! And we got to test everything out too :D

With CGI IRC that can be possible, however with irc clients that cannot be done.

Hiei

There is one in particular that I do not like. I think its a guest since it goes by the alias of SAMMY or something similar to that. I believe that a few people hate this person as well. I'm not complaining, but I'm just letting you know that this guy has the potential to be really annoying.


But that just leads to another problem. People are joining the channel just to play trivia, so all the while they remain dormant in #ichigos. I don't think people should be on this IRC just for that reason.

regardless of whether #trivia existed or not, I dont think many people would be really active in Ichigos all the time. I supply the trivia as well as leonheart, but we did not pursuade them to play it. If they don't want it, then they can tell me and I and Leonheart can disband the channel. However, dont say that it is unessecary just because it adds entertainment value and saying that it drags people away from #ichigos. The people on IRC know that chatting can be in #ichigos while playing trivia can be on #trivia, and I've seen people multi-task like that in IRC.

Every now and then, I get an urge to do some programming, so I cooked up a bot last night that will do simple authentication against our forum database. It's far from perfect, but at least it will let people know who is a forum member. Here's how it works:

When someone joins the chat room, it does a lookup on their IP (this works for both CGI-IRC and normal clients) and checks it against the forum database. If it finds that the IP matches the username, then it will display a welcome message and add a + to the user. This + lets people know that they are really who they say they are. If the user is a mod or admin, it will add a @ and give them operator rights to the channel.

In addition, if someone logs in using a forum member's name and their IP doesn't match, Ichibot will let everyone know that this could be a spoof. However, since this bot is very beta, chances are that it's just broken (check the bugs list below). Once we get these things ironed out, we could even use it to boot out the imposters! :torch:

If the user is a guest (not using their forum name and not stealing someone else's), Ichibot won't do anything.

So basically anyone with a + or @ is an authenticated forum member. Anyone without these symbols might be a member.

Please let me know your problems, comments and suggestions.

Bugs:

Special characters in forum names might not register correctly in IRC. Possibly add a custom profile field in the user

Gand
February 8th, 2007, 09:31 pm
Update: Ichibot will now check the IPs of currently logged in users. So if you log into the forums, then join chat, it will authenticate you without having to post first.

Dream
February 9th, 2007, 01:31 am
I didn't know Admins could triple post... o_o haha... kiddins! ^-^ but yeah... I'm glad I read this cause when I got on the chat I was like.. "what in the name of balloons happened here? x_x ) then.. I found this!! >_< it's so much clearer now... thank you, Gand!!

then underneath type ichigos.com::6667
then put in whatever name you wanna be called, user info...etc
