    For some weird reason I can't connect mIRC to #sorcerers on chat.planetz.net (6777) recently. However, my internet works flawless otherwise - anyway, is there a general problem with IRCs atm? If not it's probably my ISP. So, anyone else here who has this problem?

    [​IMG] The chat server has been up and down over the last two days. Unfortunately, there's no alternative. I'm making inquiries as to what's up, I hope it's just temporary.

    Well, it appears that some are able to connect now and some still are not. :rolleyes: Grrrr.

    Just got done trading e-mails with the IRC help desk. They advised that the chat.planetz.net server still was not pointing at the correct IP address, as of 8:43 pm Pacific time, with no confirmed ETA. In the interim, they advised bypassing chat.planetz.net and connecting through irc.linkline.com directly, instead. Worked great!

    [​IMG] No, it does not. Webmaster is no longer connected to the server the SP channels are on. Do NOT use irc.webmaster.com under any circumstances. The SP chatrooms are NOT on that server any more. The only ways to connect currently are via chat.planetz.net or irc.linkline.com. QuickChat will be fixed shortly.

    You need to install the java package from Sun. Check the post with the acronyms in SS, I give all the details there.
