IRC is easy to use and it doesn't suffer from any of the vices of chatspot. It's a separate program so you don't have to fiddle with multiple browser windows either.

to get started, download a client. I use Xchat, which is downloaded at: http://www.xchat.org

when it's all installed and whatnot, go into XChat>Server list

set up your nicknames, type in Darkmysyt as the server, and click connect

now type in "/join #DreamViews" after you're connected.

And that's all there is to it! Xchat becomes a tray icon when you X it so it's nice and handy. If someone wants to volunteer for Mod-dom, you can leave it running in the backround without it getting the way.

now go and chat!!

edit: Kaniaz makes it easier:[/b]

I think you can just do the following:

1. Open your IRC client of choice.
2. Type /server irc.darkmyst.org
3. Let it connect.
4. Type /join #dreamviews
5. PROFIT

Alternatively, if you're lucky, copy and paste this url into your address bar:
irc://irc.darkmyst.org/dreamviews
And your IRC client should handle the rest. Firefox may give a warning.[/b]

Any questions regarding chat?? Post in this thread.
