Chat with AfterDawn.com users

article published on 19 April, 2008

You can chat with AfterDawn.com users on our unofficial IRC channel. If you don't use IRC that's fine, you can easily access the channel anyway using a web-based Java application.

That all depends on the time of day.. not much point logging in and then sitting quiet

irc is like that.. it depends if there is anything going on or people active. Even channels that have 800+ people on them can be quiet sometimes.

True, but I figured there would be some heated discussions going on! ;)

I was logged on early in the day, so yea there probably wasn't much going on. Me log on and sit quite? NEVER!

I missed you.. and I have been not monitoring for 3 hours in the last 24.

the really quiet times seem to be (utc) 10am till around 4 and can drop off in the morning any time 6am onwards. There is usually lots of life around 6pm onwards.. with another lull about 2 am.
Think about the timezones of the people you want and shout appropriately ;)

The problem is IRC is not supposed to be really used via Java / Web Browser.

It is supposed to be used with a client like mIRC that you launch and connect to a room every single day for every hour your computer is on. You let it just hang in the taskbar or system tray, it's not supposed to be used like Digichat for example, where u login to talk and leave when ur done, it's an idlers paradise ;-)
