| Drew Black broken crankshaft  8009 Posts 9/99 |  Posted - Nov 13 1999 : 5:01PMThe ADT chat server is functional. You can reach it at chat.adultdvdtalk.com . The room name is #adt . Drop in and we can test it for a bit. I am working on a web based java chat page similar to the one at DVD Talk but for the moment you will need an IRC compatible client like mIRC. You can download mIRC at [url=468608]http://www.mirc.com [This message has been edited by Drew Black (edited November 13, 1999).] [Link] |

| duganrm Member 100 Posts 10/99 |  Posted - Nov 13 1999 : 8:30PMThat is the same problem I had when clicking on the link above (well it was a link). Use Mirc and it should work fine. ------------------ -[url=52782]Richard</A [Link] |

| duganrm Member 100 Posts 10/99 |  Posted - Nov 14 1999 : 3:47AMIf you got into the right chanel you should have seen this.I was idle in their most of the evening (but not all) so you should have seen me (dug-is-away). ------------------ -[url=52782]Richard</A [Link] |
| sfsdfd Member Parma, Ohio, USA 63 Posts 11/99 | Posted - Nov 14 1999 : 7:23AM When I first read above that the chat channel would be on chat.adultdvdtalk.com, I was disappointed. But then I dropped by rampage and checked into #adt, and found that that channel has obviously been registered. Oddly, I dropped by #adultdvdtalk and it seemed to direct me to the same place! So what's the deal? Are #adt on chat.adultdvdtalk.com, #adt on irc.ram-page.com, and #adultdvdtalk on irc.ram-page.com all the same server? Hmm... - David Stein [Link] |
| Shadow77 Member San Antonio, TX 56 Posts 11/99 | Posted - Nov 14 1999 : 7:43AM I guess I'll play around with it some more, and see what I can do. [Link] |
| Drew Black broken crankshaft 8009 Posts 9/99 | Posted - Nov 14 1999 : 10:59AM The adult content issue can be a real problem at times. To get around it (and not have to pay through the nose for hosting services) we have set up our own web, forum and chat servers. This may seem like the expensive route to go but in the long run it's the best thing. I also like the control of having our own equipment. If someone becomes a problem it's real easy to trace them down and take action if necessary. [Link] |
| duganrm Member 100 Posts 10/99 | Posted - Nov 14 1999 : 4:40PM Soundls like you are on the wrong IRC server. Drew Is there anyway to get a chatroom help? I was wondering if I could register my nick and all the help options I know don't work. ------------------ -[url=52782]Richard</A [Link] |

| kinky Member Boston, MA 13 Posts 10/99 | Posted - Nov 14 1999 : 5:05PM To be useful, the adt chat server should support nickserv so that users do not masquerade as somebody else on the channel. (chanserv is not so much of an issue since you own the IRC server anyway). It will be quite confusing for the people to switch between two IRC servers if they want to participate in both #dvdtalk and #adt. We should definitely have a java client applet and/or clear instructions on how to define two servers on their client (say, mIRC). -kinky [Link] |
| kinky Member Boston, MA 13 Posts 10/99 |  Posted - Nov 14 1999 : 5:09PMdo we pick a regular date/time for the chat ? I guess tuesdays and fridays are taken by #dvdtalk. -kinky [Link] |
| duganrm Member 100 Posts 10/99 |  Posted - Nov 14 1999 : 5:33PMWhen you start up mirc you should have an options dialog box open. Click the add button in that box. Put in chat.adultdvdtalk.com as the IRC server. Make sure you put in a descrition also (it doesn't matter what you call it). Now click ok and then connect to the server and join room #adt. Hopefully that should work. If you have any other probems or have no clue what I said let me know. ------------------ -[url=52782]Richard</A [Link] |
| Drew Black broken crankshaft 8009 Posts 9/99 | Posted - Nov 14 1999 : 5:49PM Kinky - the IRC server that we are using is the MS Exchange Chat server. People can connect using Microsoft Chat is they desire. I'm sure there are pros and cons for MS vs. mIRC. I will look into the nickserve capabilities of the software. I read through the limited info available at Ram-Page. My real fear is that they might have a problem with the content of some of the #adt chats and that it would indirectly have an impact on Geoff's ability to use their services. Although ADT and DVD Talk are operated distinctly different groups, misperceptions can often be a huge problem. I want to avoid these types of problems at all costs.

| duganrm Member 100 Posts 10/99 | Posted - Nov 28 1999 : 4:01AM If anyone else needs help setting up MIRC I have been using it for about 4 weeks and can understand it well enough to partially explain. ------------------ -[url=52782]Richard</A [Link] |
