B suggested we should make an IRC channel... so I did.

#bf2s on irc.freenode.net

heres a list of servers:
http://freenode.net/irc_servers.shtml
Remember you can connect to irc.freenode.net and it will choose a server for you.

heres a few clients:
-silverex (windows): http://www.silverex.org/news/
-xchat (*nix): http://www.xchat.org/
-mirc (windows, piece of crap software that requires registration..): http://www.mirc.com/
-trillian (windows) http://www.ceruleanstudios.com/
-chatzilla (firefox addin) https://addons.mozilla.org/extensions/m … .php?id=16
-opera (browser w/irc support) http://www.opera.com/

mods and the like I'll add you to the uberaccess list if and when you join the channel

'95? Now I feel like a loser, I downloaded it a couple months ago >.<.

Opera's IRC Client is still the best IMO.

There was a thread about it a long time ago. I guess not a lot of people saw it.

heh heh... ayb knows. oh how he knows.

anyways, freenode has a far better userbase (less foghattery) and the servers are actually reliable (gasp!)

Chuy: How hard would it be to have a java web based irc client linked to auto ask for nickname and then auto connect to server/channel. I think more people might use the link and randomly chat on channel if its located on the website. I know many of use just hangout and read so it might be a cool BF2S social chat thing. Just an idea.

Here's what I tried:

- http://www.pjirc.com/main.php
Just wouldn't load.

- http://eirc.sourceforge.net/
Couldn't connect to anything.

- http://www.jpilot.com/products/jirc/index.html
ANNOYINGLY not free

The EIRC looks nice, but I'm so noob with Java and I don't know how to sign the files into CAB's in order to make it work.
