| Logging
on:
Logging on is automatic,
though your browser may give you a certificate warning.
The developer who wrote this little application
put his own certificate on it. It's fine, just go
ahead and choose yes or ok, depending up on your
browser, to accept the valid certificate. If you
don't have Java installed or enabled, there may
be a request to install the Java Runtime plugin
for your browser. Once again, this is standard and
there are many Internet applications that require
Java so it's okay to install this plugin.
A
"screen name" will automatically be assigned
to you as "Starlordnnn", where "nnn"
means a random number, but you may prefer to use
your Imperial Wars screen name or some other name
if you want to. Once you are logged in, just type
"/nick (and type your new name here)",
no quotes of course.
Once
you have determined which size IRC Chat window fits
your screen best and you have successfully entered
the IWars chat, you can bookmark this page and automatically
and easily return to the Imperial Wars Senate easily. |
Getting
an IRC dedicated client:
This
is a very nice little application but If you want
a more versatile connection or if you are a veteran
IRC user, and would like to use a dedicated IRC
client, try the mIRC
Homepage, one of the most popular IRC chat clients
around. No matter what client you use, the table
below contains the information you need to establish
a connection with your dedicated IRC client:. We
are unable to recommend a good Mac IRC client yet,
but if you find one you like, send us the link and
we'll put it in here.

Imperial Wars on the Internet Relay Chat.
IRC
stands for Internet Relay Chat. The IRC network is older than the
World Wide Web. It is a virtual meeting place where people from
all over the world can meet and talk (errr, type). On the IRC you
connect with others in chat "channels" or virtual rooms,
usually defined by a particular topic) to talk in groups, or privately.
There is no restriction to the number of people that can participate
in a given discussion, or the number of channels that can be formed
on IRC. As a user you run a "client" program which connects
to a "server" in an IRC network. All servers are interconnected
and pass messages from user to user over the IRC network. One server
can be connected to several other servers and up to hundreds of
clients.
SorceryNet's
European IRC servers host our chat channel Iwars.
