With our E3 staffers frantically running around on the show floor, collecting mountains of information, we thought it'd be nice to give you guys an opportunity to bug them after a long day of work. Originally, we had setup a PHP chat script, but due to the constant refreshing causing concern for seizures (and the fact that it was generally annoying), we've switched to the more reliable IRC way of things.
Server: irc.opa-ages.com
Channel: #n-sider
For those unfamiliar with IRC, one of our forum moderators, Axord, has written a quick guide on how to use ChatZilla and IRC in general. You also have the option of using mIRC, a popular IRC client.
Quick dirty guide to IRC
If you have Firefox, first get Chatzilla extension here: https://addons.mozilla.org/extensio...einfo.php?id=16
Install, restart. Invoke it from Tools>Chatzilla. Fill in the fields with perhaps useful info.
irc commands start with /
to join a server, type /attach servername
To join a channel within a server, type /join #channelname
So: /attach irc.opa-ages.com
Then: /join #n-sider
