I'm personally for using the chat, its just that it always seems extremely inactive when I'm on it. However, that may be because I'm on at 12:30-1PM EST (lunch time) and almost never otherwise. I just get kinda tired of waiting because, well it's extremely inactive whenever I'm on... I'm lucky to get one reply, so lately I just wait for someone to say something first.

I know I haven't been active recently, but you have to stay logged on for an hour or two to actually chat with someone. Weekends are usually pretty good; but during the week, some people have work, or school, or just other things to do. If you had more time, I'm sure that someone would talk to you. But I know that when I see someone log on, say nothing, then log off, I always wonder why they bothered logging on in the first place. Now I know :p

In other news, I wish I had more time to go on the chats ;.;

this could be of great help.
=)

I am new. Why does everyone have a Title (Pokemon Master, Ace Trainer, etc.) by there name and I would like psybucks please?

Wat are psybuck and how do u get pics and stuff plz tell me

@BasGuy: The title by your name reflects your post count. The higher it is, the higher the title is. Additionally you get 1 Psybuck when you make a post. (This does not, however, encourage a bunch of meaningless posts.)

@bamstaman: You can change your avatar and signature in your profile. For a signature you will need to enclose a picture link in [img] tags.

@Nbareshiram: The language CAN be strong, but in truth it's really just very sparingly used. Swearing does exist though, so if you aren't fond of that or are against it...just be warned.

Is there a direct link to the chatroom? I clicked on the link in the opening post and clicked on mIRC and it said I have to download something. Do I seriously have to do all that?

Look for the phrase that says:
"Alternative use our Java Applet to access our social chat."

Click on the words 'Java applet'.

I did after I got totally confused with mIRC, and my computer wont even show the link. How can I download it?

Download what? You mean mIRC?

http://mirc.com

As for Java and mibbit.com, you do not need to download anything.

I didnt know about mibbit.com. I also thought you had to download it but I dont know what the window shows. Well, I'll try again friday.

Although some of us may be online all the time, we are not necessarily at the computer and even if we are we might not be paying attention to the chat or feel like chiming in/saying anything. A wonderful medium for social interaction, I must say.

Why would you expect there to be different people? On forums you also see more or less the same people posting each time you log on.

When I'm on I will usually say hi to someone new unless I'm preoccupied with something, but most of us just have the chat up and are busy or otherwise not at the keyboard.
It's not that we're ignoring you necessarily; it's that some times of day are better than others. The best times I've noticed are usually mid-afternoon to mid-night.

My username on the chat is DNA, the same as on the forums.

What can i do with my psybucks. There is nothing i can buy...

mIRC only runs on Windows.

Apparently this IRC client is a good one for Macs. Try Google to find other IRC clients for Macs if that one is no good.

I try to be in the channel whenever I'm online. o: My IRC nickname is Panther. Sometimes IRC isn't active, but it doesn't hurt to keep the window open and check it once in a while! :3
