BetterPHP

An irc channel. Easy to set-up on an active server (all you would need is a room...) and helps the community get to know each other. I am in about 4 as I type so they are used

I don't think it would hurt, I'll look into it.

I would recommend the ipocalypse server since they are nice people.

that would be awesome.

If you want I could set one up for you? register the room etc... then give you ownership. Saves you the time, all you need to do is register your nick.

I don't see why an IRC chat would be viable at this stage in the forums development.

I'm pretty sure I can manage it, thanks for offering though.

Well if it doesn't get used, I can just remove it.

I suppose. No harm no foul.

It would surprise me though if there were ever many people in, or regularly. I mean, there are IRC chats with forums with hundreds and hundreds of users that rarely get more than 5 or 6 people in them.

I'm gonna be in it 24/7, well, almost, minus the hours my PC is in sleep mode

It depends on the users I guess. We will see when I get around to it.

Sounds like a good idea. I'll try to keep using it, when I have the time

Well I am sure you can was more a "if you're feeling lazy" offer
I am always in chats so that's 2 active 24/7

Well for me its neutral, because i don't use mIRC

Server: irc.mibbit.net
Channel: #BetterPHP

I will be only most of the time until the novelty wares off

I will also add a chat page to the website at some point (which is why I went with mibbit)

I will be in it from tomorrow.

no one on it

I'm on it sometimes but I tend to check on the same websites every 10 minutes and then I close all tabs no matter what it is.

Due to using mibbits server the client I almost always use cannot connect, however i am in there every now, and then.

Yeah, this (slightly predictably) failed.

Worth a try

We need more active members ( I'm thinking around 500 total members and about 60-100 active members ) for this to work.

Well, I'll be on almost every day

But really you only need about 20-50 active for an IRC to work. Looking forward to it though

Want a bot written?
