The Chatroom

All the fansub groups on mircx seem to be going separate ways. So, wherever you go is fine.

try zirc. They don't seem to have problems, plus its run by Somethingawful people, who generally dont care what happens.

Or Austnet

doesn't matter WHAT gets picked so long as something is picked XD

It's probably best if we don't hang around the fansub/fucksubs/fagripper servers, it only creates drama and ddos

*shrugs* doesnt matter to me either way. Any channel is always at risk for these kind of things.

I still recommend Espernet.

*crosses fingers*

Espernets a good one for me as I already have a registered name there

Well, maybe this will help you to pick a network.

Yay, first post!

Not to mention a KILLER first post!

I think this list needs to be brought to everyone's attention. It will be a great aid to finding a new server. It might not be imperative to this group, but I believe that a central chatroom to participate in helps in a big big way. For one, I am ready and wililng to fserve it up, providing new outlets for media distribution.

I've seen the list, and looked it over a lot. Honestly, there's two reasons the chat's not back up somewhere, though:

1) This is crunch time for me, right before spring break;
2) The suggestion that maybe we SHOULDN'T go to a digi-sub network makes a lot of sense, since those are the ones that are always targeted for attacks

But whatever. I'll get around to making a decision soon. Thanks, everyone!

If that's the case, just go for anywhere but rizon.net. It seems to be in the lead by far...

tablet the eunuch · Post by **tablet the eunuch** » Mon Mar 08, 2004 7:09 pm

Austnet or zIRC

Please.

Here's a stupid suggestion then.

Start a small private IRC server just for Daizenshuu with a small set of channels only related to the website.

That's just asking for trouble I know, but I'm just throwing things out here.

Starting up an actual IRC server is a lot of work, and so is maintaining it. I've known people who've done it, and I could possibly do it myself, since I have a bit of experience running other types of servers. Getting a decent server box up and running and getting enough bandwidth for it would probably cost money, too.

Why go through all that trouble when there are plenty of existing servers to create channels on for free? Such as Espernet.

I agree with you, but apparently it seems they are skeptical about existing servers.

I don't see why when so many of them have reinforced themselves so well.

X_X Babakku, please change your avatar...

Zackarotto · Post by **Zackarotto** » Sun Mar 21, 2004 11:27 pm

Ack! Please do something about that... how were you able to even do it?

laserkid · Post by **laserkid** » Sun Mar 21, 2004 11:50 pm

Someone needs to fix that XD
