Title: New Online IRC Client / RMRK Alerts
Post by: Roph on January 05, 2009, 12:11:16 AM
Both useful for RMRK addicts :)

mibbit IRC

Firstly, our online IRC chat is no longer a java applet, and has been replaced by a mibbit AJAX IRC widget. This was due to a few people reporting problems with the Java app, and because Java sucks :mad:

The URL is the same (http://rmrk.net/?action=chat), and it will still auto-suggest your RMRK name for the nickname. A link on the web chat page to launch a popup of just the chat so you don't have to keep a tab (or window, stop using IE) open will come shortly :). Still, using an IRC client like XChat (http://silverex.org) or Pidgin (http://pidgin.im) is recommended over web IRC, and you can find us on irc.rmrk.net (port 6667), in the channel #crankeye.


RMRK Alerts

Secondly, RMRK now supports Windows Live Alerts. Think of it as turning your Windows Live Messenger (or another supporting program/device) into an automatic RSS reader for RMRK. Every now and then (about one every 1-3 hours, you won't be spammed with them, don't worry) you will see a little notice similar to the one above when people do things on RMRK. Of course, you could always just use our regular RSS Feed (http://rmrk.net/index.php?type=rss;action=.xml) with a suitable reader :D

If you want to try out the RMRK Alerts for windows live, click here to signup to them (http://signup.alerts.live.com/alerts/login.do?PINID=42680400&returnURL=http://rmrk.net/). A proper permanent link will appear soon in an upcoming theme update  :)

You should update the thing below the IRC chat thing since you don't need Java anymore? :P

Question mark was because I wasn't sure if the client still needed Java. >_>

I hate it when people on the internet ask questions in the form of statements with question marks after it.

If you did it in real life, people would think you're retarded.

Like, Java never worked for me either, so like, thanks.
