Tutorial: IRC - The Original Instant Messenger

Quality, informative post Ms Mittens. Must have taken ages to do! :)

hey all

this post should stay up..
I could have used the bump up button but i thought i might add that i still would like to see antibot back in the room..
at first I disliked having to ident.. but now i see why it is good to have a bot like antibot in the room..

and thanks ofcouse to msmittens for all the help..

Hey, I've had no luck connecting to antichat.res.cmu.edu or services.antionline.com, have they changed since this tutorial was written?
(using GAIM, if that makes a difference)

Yes. They no longer exist. You can find an AO chat on the freenode IRC network however. Read the details here

Thanks. :) Would be sweet if you could edit the original so as not to confuse other noobs, I'm sure I'm not the only one.

Already done. It's on the first line of the tutorial.
