Activity has been booming and the chatroom is a bigger success this time around than ever

Now we've also added a trivia game channel for those who like that sort of stuff.

To join it, just type "/join #mbtrivia" in the chat. On that channel, Trivia is a bot which runs trivia games. Typing ".help trivia" in that channel gives you the following helpful info :

.themes - lists available question themes.
.theme set <name> - changes current question theme (must be channel founder).

Have fun with it!

I have no wish myself to moderate the activity in the channel, but moderators can of course if they want to. I'll give MB moderators auto-op on the channel (basically moderator status), but before I do that, mods should register their nicknames with nickserv.

When logged into the chatroom, just write :

Code:

/msg nickserv REGISTER <password> <email>

Change <password> and <email> for whatever works for you. You will get an email sent to the address you specified with further instructions as how to complete your registration. When that's done, I can add you to the channel's auto-op list! When logging on, to let nickserv know it's really you who is using your nick, just write "/msg nickserv IDENTIFY <password".

so basically anyone and everyone can be a mod in the new chat?

anyone else find it kinda funny it's powered or whatever by lolipower.org?

I like the new chat when it isn't over run by retardation in the form of everyone switching usernames every 5 seconds. Which has been rare these past 2 days. But I like not having a swear filter and seeing who all is at least viewing the chat.

I thought this was a new thread about the old chat. No?

Guybrush · 04-13-2011, 12:39 AM

It is the old chat. What's new is just the browser client I've set up which makes people get on more easily, but anyone following the guidelines from the old guide will meet up with the guys using the browser client advertised in this thread. I didn't like the way the old thread was made, nor the fact that it had been modified to advertise an AIM chat (I never use AIM myself), so I made a new thread.

I don't intend to let anyone be a moderator in there, but I will of course let anyone who's a moderator here moderate the IRC channel (Janszoon, Conan, Freebase Dali, Pedestrian etc). There's been some impersonation going on, people pretending to be other people. Maybe there could be a rule against that, but as mentioned, I'm not too keen on moderating behaviour myself.

**Scarlett O'Hara** · 04-13-2011, 03:33 AM

Ahem...yes I think maybe it's a good idea that people don't impersonate others...I am very guilty of it.
