Title: Chat with the NinSheetMusic Community!
Post by: Winter on April 15, 2012, 02:42:51 PM
You don't have to register in the forums to be part of the community here, all you have to do is click the chat button on the bar at the top of the site! Pick a username and start talking! I'll be there most of the time, and various other members of NSM and some others will be there!

We just changed IRC servers, so the room is a little bit more empty than it was before, but we plan to get it filled up and lively!

Also, our TWG chatroom as moved to HERE (http://cbe005.chat.mibbit.com/?server=irc.NFnet.org&channel=%23NSMTWG)

If you want to connect with your IRC Client, use this information:

Server: irc.nfnet.org
Channel: #NinSheetMusic
TWG Channel #NSMTWG

why did you change to that sketchy server and not something standard like freenode
why did you change at all -.-
and now we have an annoying long channel name.......

The logic, it is not there.

Winter, did you just decide to change the servers on your own? That's what this is looking like right now.

Guys i don't see what the big fuss is about. If i'm missing something will someone please tell me? He moved servers. Big deal. It's not really any different than the old irc is it? I think it's a plus cuz i can get it on my iPod.

I agree. What's wrong with changing servers? I personally like the new chat better, actually.

It is the exact same except that it is on a server with undesirables.  You can do nothing more or different with this change.
Title: Re: Chat with the NinSheetMusic Community!
Post by: K-NiGhT on April 15, 2012, 07:49:17 PM
Well the old one was giving some users (myself included) trouble.
Title: Re: Chat with the NinSheetMusic Community!
Post by: KefkaticFanatic on April 15, 2012, 09:03:10 PM
It connected the same way.
Title: Re: Chat with the NinSheetMusic Community!
Post by: K-NiGhT on April 15, 2012, 09:07:54 PM
But for some reason it kept giving me an error message. Idk why. I'm just glad i'm able to use the chat now. If you all can use it, too, then I don't see why it's such a big deal. At least Winter is trying to do something productive.

I don't believe your personal issues with users on that server are of huge importance.

I do not mean for that to sound rude one bit.

The same thing really, except for dumb ads. I guess it's the people in the chat that counts..

I think it's great that we're "updating" the site. Wanna update anything else, while you're at it? Or are you too busy with the chat thing?
Title: Re: Chat with the NinSheetMusic Community!

Deku's been working on the update! ;D

He hasn't touched yours yet though. Idk if it has something to do with replacing the zip link or what.

It don't like me. Fix it.

IRC is IRC, the new server is the same as the old one, if you weren't able to connect before then you were probably doing something wrong. In fact for everyone who had a problem it was probably connecting through the java applet that caused it, as the new link is for mibbit. So don't blame the server when you hardly have an idea for what you're doing.

It's also annoying because now we still have both channels on two different servers.

The ads are there because of mibbit, not IRC.

The nfnet server is actually more likely to have downtime than the old drshnaps one too.

It's not working for all for me. It just keeps cycling through those random messages on the first page with the Loading screen. Might it have anything to do with Adblock?

Finally. I have never been able to access NinSheetMusic's official chat server before so this update is quite a relief for me.

I changed my mind. I hate the new chat. I get disconnected every 2 minutes.

OMG Spit! Mine too, but every 15 seconds. I hate the chat.

I still have no clue what you guys are talking about.

Both servers work fine for me. Maybe you guys need a port forwarded? idk.
Title: Re: Chat with the NinSheetMusic Community!
Post by: spitllama on July 16, 2012, 07:27:36 PM
Port forwarded what? :(

All I know is that if I open the mibbit chat and leave the computer, I'll come back 5 minutes later and there will be 50 messages on the chat log saying "You have disconnected from the server."
Title: Re: Chat with the NinSheetMusic Community!
Post by: Wrydryn on July 16, 2012, 08:18:26 PM
It's more likely an issue with you than the irc server seeing there are plenty of people on and active there.
Title: Re: Chat with the NinSheetMusic Community!
Post by: FSM-Reapr on July 17, 2012, 03:41:15 AM
My Macbook keeps messing with me. Something happens, and then the server has some sort of communication error.
Title: Re: Chat with the NinSheetMusic Community!
Post by: Winter on July 20, 2012, 01:51:06 PM
If you can use your own client to connect to the server, you might have better luck. Google IRC Client and use the information provided on the post.
Title: Re: Chat with the NinSheetMusic Community!
Post by: FSM-Reapr on July 20, 2012, 01:56:29 PM
I'll try that when I come back.

Chat works fine for me, except it doesn't seem to count me as part of the NSM community? :-\
What I mean is: all of the other users of the NSM Forums have a blue person/thing by their name, but I still have a green guy by my name (like non-forum users). Well, not that I don't like green, but I just don't understand it. :P

...no; everyone is one of two colors, I assume (because I haven't seen any other colors, just green and blue).

It's the difference between being idle and chatting.

...that's not what I'm talking about...??? You're making me more confused than I already am. :P
For example, people like JaMaHa are always blue: when you hover over their "blue guy icon," it states their names, whether they're active or not (I noticed this with Winter once). But for all the green people, active or not, it always says "mibbitian"???

Green = using Mibbit IRC webapp
Blue = using any other IRC client

It's not "mibbit chat", it's a standard IRC server that can be accessed from a variety of IRC clients.  Mibbit happens to be a web-based IRC client.
Title: Re: Chat with the NinSheetMusic Community!
Post by: Winter on November 13, 2012, 12:57:14 PM
it's not mibbit chat. mibbit is a way of accessing IRC.

You can use any client.
