It would be great to get this "stickied" so it stays on top of the front page. Live chat and help is great, and the more people we get in the chat, the better it will be!

You guys get an A for marketing effort! I think the concept is a good one, though it is not really for me. Personally, I find chat, in any form, to be less useful than a bboard such as this. Mostly due to my hectic professional and personal schedules. I just can't hang about for long periods of time.

I hope that it works for everyone. I would love to see people post good conversations/discussions/information that is generated there somewhere persistent (here maybe?) for the rest of us. Conversely, I hope it doesn't detract from the quality and vigor of the conversations here. IMHO.

Cheers,

SD

Converstaions there do tend to be my dynamic and some times off-topic.

We had a long chat last night that started with Serenity RPG then went to Serenity the movie, Firefly the series, how we can get the series back on TV...

There was some usefull bits on FG as Cypher tried to remove those letter tokens out of the box and some ruleset descustion went on. I also saw someone get into Sinkle's game.

Its nice to 'see' people there. While not the same as meeting someone in person, its easier to get a feel for the different folks via chat then here.

Hehe, we know it's not going to float everyone's boat, but so far someone who has owned the game for a couple months (and been unable to find a game) came to the chat and are now getting ready to play in a game.

Yeah, I think is a great addition for all of us. Chatting on a board, you sometimes can get a feel for people, but in a real time chat in a chat room you can get a way better grasp on people and who they are. Plus ya, we can chat about cool things like Serenity. ;-)

I have to put together a freakin list of forums and chat rooms I need to visit on a nightly basis... I always forget to check in on this one.

Awesome, thanks for the Sticky Topic on this. It will be nice for others to know about the chat room.

Just so people know we have already played in a couple pickup games.

Some players who have never played yet have become members of scheduled games, as well as taken part in pickup games.

It is definately still up. If you went to the chatroom #FantasyGrounds, and no one was there, then you were on the wrong server.

Make sure that the server you connect to is: irc.worldgamers.net (you will likely have to add it to your server list).

I figured it out , It has been years since I have used mirc .

So what are the downsides of this? I notice that it appends some network identification to my nick.

About a minute after I joined a Nick called 'wilburn' showed up and said 'hey Sigurd' I responded but he quit.

Wilburn, if you are an fgrounds user I apologize for thinking the worst of you.

If you've been trying to connect to the chatroom, and had no luck it's because the server changed.

You may have to update your server address (until all dns servers update) to: 69.64.40.51

See you there!

The domain name of our irc chat channel has changed!

If you are interested in coming down to the chatroom, please use

server: irc.UnrealGamers.net

The old server domain will not work anymore.

Hope to see you there soon!

Anyone else still having issues connecting? Tried the new unreal dns addy as well as the direct IP.

Cypher

The chatroom is, and has been, up waiting for visitors :)

I'm really not sure why you would be having a problem connecting.

It does work just fine, but I wouldn't worry about it. There aren't enough gamers interested in chatting to make it work.

This thread can be un-stickied.

Thank you.

A chat with the devteam would be nice and it might get some people to login too. I was on the channel once but it was very quiet and only a few people there.

Hi,

Isnt there anyone in the chatroom? It would be so easy if most of you people would run it. Cause some people like me who are new could really use such chatrooms. Any chat room would be fine. I hope the devs could make up a chatroom that is accesible on the homepage.

greetings

The chat room never really worked out. There were some people who would stay around in it and discuss/answer questions, but most people would just jump in and say a quick "hi" and if they didnt get a response within a min would leave. Most people who were in the room would have it running in the background while they were at work, so they wouldnt be able to respond immediatly.

The chat room was abandoned after about a month I think it was.

I still pop in there once in a while, but it's usually only me, or someone else idling :/

I got 'lost' when it moved from one server to another. I just didn't make the change.

I havent been there in a long time, sure if we promote it again, people will come I am sure. What if we could get the devs to pop in on a certain night or something, do a dev chat or something. Then maybe gets some rpg heavyweights in there...?

Re-open and I shall come.
