2+2 IRC Server

[dawade]

Forgive me if this is posted up somewhere, but just wondering if there is indeed a 2+2 IRC server and if so what is the address?

Sorry again.

so how does the whole irc thing work.

IRC == internet relay chat.

Essentially, there are servers that connect to eachother to form chat networks. You download one of a hundred different IRC clients and join one of these servers (say, for example, us.undernet.org). From there, you join a channel, or as many channels as you feel like. A channel is nothing more than a glorified chat room (for all intents and purposes). In this case, the channel would be #twoplustwo.

The real power of IRC lies in the fact that it's got a [censored]-load of features, and generally the people on it are considered slightly more tech savvy than your average netizen.

The other thing is, IRC is used as the basis for a lot of web-based chat stuff since it's really low level. Odds are, you've used IRC at one time or another and don't even know it.

Is there some way to automatically connect to twoplustwo or do I have to connect through the server and type out /join twoplustwo?

[fluxrad]

Assuming you're using mIRC there should be an option somewhere up top for "auto-join" channels.
