Thread: IRC channel moved! (sorta)

  1. #1

    Default IRC channel moved! (sorta)

    For those using (or interested in trying) the #horizons IRC channel, the host name has been changed.

    Old server: irc.stratics.com
    New server: irc.gamers-irc.org

    Old and new channel: #horizons


    Apparently, Stratics has had a change of management and decided to cut ties with the IRC network running under their name. Same people, same servers, same services database, just a different domain name.

    The blog at http://www.gamers-irc.org/ sums it up.

    Looking for a client? Here are a two for Windows that don't cost money:
    HexChat
    Pidgin

    Pidgin is actually a multi-protocol instant-messaging client, so if you have a bunch of messenger applications open and want to consolidate them (with no ads!), this is definitely worth looking at. Although, Google Hangouts and Skype are not supported by Pidgin at this time.

    HexChat is a dedicated IRC client that has a richer feature set (and cleaner interface for IRC chats) than Pidgin.

    Of course, there are other clients out there, and just as many lists of IRC clients.
    You can get anything you want in life -- just make a lot of noise and bite the right people.

    If anyone just wants a quick web paged based IRC client, I've been using Mibbit for years. Lets you join with no muss, no fuss. Just click this link and set your nickname and you're in!

    Join Horizons IRC Chat


    Also note under the community.istaria.com site, the link to "Horizons IRC" is broken. Maybe someone can fix that For a quick solution, just use the same link above, or of course adjust how you see fit.

    Cheers!
