@scribble You still need to get on IRC so I can hug you more properly <3
-
@toksyuryel Have you got any private way to hug?
-
@scribble IRC is plenty private if you /query someone rather than talking to an entire channel.
-
@scribble (There's also channel privacy settings, but for only 2 people that's way overcomplicating it.)
-
@scribble Yes, IRC.
-
@toksyuryel @bitshift I mean something like Gtalk/Skype etc
-
@scribble I have AIM but IRC is vastly preferred.
-
@toksyuryel Well, where do I go?
-
@scribble canternet ^_^
-
@toksyuryel What's the best IRC client to use for Windows?
-
@scribble Canternet, as Toksy said, and you'll also need an IRC client. On Windows, HexChat is pretty much unbeatable (mIRC also has some interesting features, but it's not free). On OS X/Linux/*BSD, there's a lot more good choices, so it'd depend on your specific taste in chat clients.
-
@toksyuryel Now, what do I join and how? (I feel stupid, like there's probably somewhere I can easily do this and I'm missing it)
-
@scribble After connecting to canternet just type `/query Toksyuryel` sans-quotes. It should open a private message window where we can chat
-
@scribble you can also use Mibbit if you'd rather not install a client
-
@redenchilada @scribble Mm. As much as I kvetch about Mibbit most times the subject comes up, it is perfectly adequate for most things you'll ever want to do on IRC.
-
@bitshift I think it doesn't support DCC, which would be my biggest complaint.
-
@bitshift @redenchilada I already installed HexChat
-
@toksyuryel True. But sending files over IRC, while very handy, is certainly not a make-or-break feature when you just want to chat.
-
@scribble In that case, gimme a second to make some screenshots so I can show you what to enter where. (I would try to explain it, but it'd likely be much more confusing than just showing.)
-
@bitshift I got the basic jist, but if I have more questions in the future, I'll ask you

@scribble It's pretty simple really :3
-
@cavatina We kill the Batman?
-
@countscribus nope, we sit him down for tea and patty-cake.
-
@thehighlander Why not? :p
-
@countscribus Oh, you Joker:)
