all you do is download bonzaibuddy.exe

run that and it will automatically connect you to the channel

I just want to say, so far, my experience with a new chatroom has been a much more friendlier, receptive, and all-around more enjoyable environment focused more around mapping than the random, inane crap you find on steamchat.

It's just something new. People are trying to prove it's useful/viable. Give it time. The inanity will arise.

No it won't.

IRC is already the better form of chat, and it'll be at the point where the steam chatroom ought to be shut down when we get a trivia bot !

 

[Shmitz]

It's not steam vs IRC. There are no intentions of shutting anything down. ¬_¬

Oh it will. There is no stopping that.

In other news, I put together a small little page that makes it easy for people to try out mirc with nnscript, if they thought it was a bit complicated, which I suppose is to be expected, as with any new applications you come in contact with.. (like me trying to get grips on a modeling software!)

Give it a try before dismissing it entirely, of course; using a client such as mIRC isn't the only way to connect, but in my opinion it's the best

Just chaining these two together:

My experience of IRC left me crying in a corner, why over complicate things with it?

Done right, some flash/java IRC clients are basically a "no install" irc client that runs on the local machine. The web-server's only interaction is to provide a way to launch them.
