Modplug has an IRC channel again!

We already had #modplug at an efnet server, but unfortunatelly, that server is set so the first person who comes has OP. Due to a bot, we lost operator status in that channel, and kind of abandoned the channel.

I've now registered a new IRC channel at espernet which allows me to regain operator status when I connect to that channel, but even better, it allows me to hand out OP status to different people, even when I'm not there.

Since Miko helped me setting this up (and he kept #modplug free for us all these years) I made him OP.

If you have an IRC client, feel free to join the channel from time to time.

If it helps, its on the same server as #Modarchive! :)

If you don't have an IRC client, you can download mIRC or Miranda IM which both have IRC support. There are more clients, but I have experience with both. :)

btw: Miranda IM is a good replacement for your msn/icq/yahoo messenger. :)

hey, the bot in the efnet chan was perfectly fine, i ran it in fact... just noone ever came there except miko and i.
anyway, if people actually come to the espernet one ill hang out there.

btw, mirandi im sucks -_-
use gaim, tho it sucks for irc also.
(er, make that 'pidgin', still weird to get used to the name change)

You were TMbba?

We were wondering who it was, because the channel on efnet lost operator status.

Anyway, with the espernet channel, we now have registered channel capabilities. This means that I can set anyone operator, even if the channel is empty, and also if someone enters when the channel is empty, and I come in, I can remove that person's OP status to regain the channel.

I gave Miko the same rights, and obviously if Rewbs and Sam_Zen wants, I can apply that to them too.

More operators are currently not needed, but if the channel becomes more crowded, I certainly can see who can become OP. :)

modarchive's bot's name is TMAnna... :D

Yep, this is an ooooold topic, but I thought that it'd be worth mentioning that there is a web chat widget on the main site now available for those people who'd like to chat with us but don't want to or can't install an IRC client. Maybe this will bring some more activitiy in our (slowly growing but still) small IRC channel...
