Title: bitblot IRC
Post by: Alec on November 10, 2007, 06:34:14 am
server: irc.esper.net
channel: #bitblot

irc://irc.esper.net/bitblot (http://webchat.esper.net/?nick=&channels=bitblot)

Just getting it started, I'll be hanging out there when I'm working. (which is most of the time when I'm not sleeping)

Probably won't be much happening there yet, but feel free to drop in and say "Hi" if you like!

If you've never used IRC before and want to try it out, check out mIRC (http://www.mirc.com/). There is also a beginner's guide to IRC commands here (http://www.ircbeginner.com/ircinfo/ircc-commands.html).

Yeah, cool!
I think I'll be there too (, but most of the time |away...)

P.S. I was thinking about starting a #bitblot channel, but I don't know enough about running one. (like how to keep it running when I'm offline etc)

Have a look here: http://www.esper.net/chanserv.html You first have to register your nick (http://www.esper.net/nickserv.html), and then you can register the channel. Not that hard. :)

Thanks!

Managed to figure it out earlier, didn't want to link to it until I registered it. O0

Just added the channel/network to my Konversation-Joinlist

I like IRC much better than forums :)

Are you going to put in a bot on the channel or something like that. It might make things interesting.

"*** Notice -- Due to a network split, you can not obtain channel operator status in a new channel at this time."

profoX` and I are both in #bitblot, and I am the only one in #aquariamods.


So,  I stole your aquaria channel....

In case anyone's not aware of this, there's an in-browser client at Efnet.org for dirty slackers like me who want to chat but can't download a proper IRC client at work.

Are you sure that you can use it for other networks (besides Efnet) too? Because bitblot is using Esper.net...
Title: Re: bitblot IRC
Post by: Toom on January 02, 2008, 03:47:08 am
That'd explain why the channel's been empty every time I've tried it then  :-[. I'm so good at inter net.

Edit: there is an embedded Java client on Esper.net, but I can't get it to connect (this may just be because I'm at work).

I just installed a 24/7 bot named Harold.

Generaly, he reacts to sentences started with his name or "!"

For example type !coin to let him flip a coin. or !roulette to let him play russian roulette or !last to see the last written line in the channel (useful if you got kicked or ping timeouted).

Other commands are:
!nickometer $nick - to check the lameness of your nick ($nick is what you enter, not your nick)
!dice 2d6 or 6d20 or other dicecombos to roll some dices. Max number of dices 6, max sides 100.
/msg harold register nick password to add yourself to his userdatabase

!dict word to get a useless and long dictionary-entry (most asurely ending with (X more messages), in this case type !more)

Navigation: !list shows the installed plugins !list insult shows the commands and !help insult shows what !insult $user does. etc. This way you can find out easy what he can do atm. :) Try it! :)
Some actions are only doable by admins, in case you wonder ;)

<Dozin> he's still here in spirit
<SunBeam> quick, sing the song
<SunBeam> or he will be lost in the darkness
<SunBeam> :))
* Alphasoldier (alphasoldi@b85146.upc-b.chello.nl) has joined #bitblot

<SunBeam> we sang and he returned
<Alphasoldier> what?

Post by: Xiagan on January 29, 2008, 04:58:50 pm
In case you wondered: I removed the bot, because it increased the spam-affinity of the channel's users to an unbearable amount...
Title: Re: bitblot IRC
Post by: Alphasoldier on January 29, 2008, 08:34:12 pm
Yeah, we're very childish, but he had this nice Nickname rater which we tried to get a 100% dull nickname on it, we got 99,998%
And then the fun game roulette which is russian roulette. Take THAT Daidalos!
Title: Re: bitblot IRC
Post by: Xiagan on January 29, 2008, 08:56:57 pm
Okay, for those of you who want to play with the nickometer and the roulette.... I parked him in #blitbot. You can go there and spam around. ;)

Hey!
I found a statistics site! Look here: http://en.gogloom.com/EsperNet/bitblot/

And, more important, you can chat in #bitblot from this site without needing a special program! Your browser will do (if he can handle java)! :)

yeah, I was mostly asking if anyone tended to have random conversations there still. I think most IRC chats seem to be dead most of the time.

I find most chat rooms terribly uncomfortable.  Probably for the same reasons I find large groups of people talking IRL terribly uncomfortable.  I can never get people to listen to what I'm saying.  And I have a large ego that needs stroking.  It gets testy if it isn't brushed twice a conversation.

*Rubs Glamador's ego the wrong way.*  :P I get the same feeling - two or three people have a conversation, I post, and nothing happens.  ^-^

Well, IRC is mostly about lurking... which basically means not talking but being there. Sounds stupid, I know.   ;)

Post by: False.Genesis on August 09, 2012, 08:46:14 pm
Sorry for the grave dig, but...
Since #bitblot is not completely dead, I figured it would be cool to have a log of the IRC channel, which can now be accessed here: http://fg.wzff.de/pub/aquaria/bitblot-irc/ (starting from today).
The log is real-time, so whenever someone says something the files will be up-to-date.

Considering that #aquariamods is dead - no activity in the past year except joins and leaves and maybe 5 messages in the whole time, I don't consider the logs for this worth putting up.
