boxy and I have been using irc chat... via MIRC... cause it is a pain to get in through the java doorway...
the url for the old chatroom which took forever to get into is...
http://www.donzi.net/chat
the one that blew up ther other night is
http://www.sportboatsonline.com/X7Chat/index.php
if you can't get into either one... and still want to chat...
www.mirc.com
download and install
select one of the undernet USA servers
room is #donziboats
Thanks Jamie I just tried them both, the old one was empty and said it was an evaluation copy. I could not log onto the new one or reregister. I guess that rates an Oh Well! The new one was great before it went south.

weird phil, i have MIRC open in donziboats... and no one appeared...
did you enter through www.donzi.net/chat???? or did you download and install mirc? evaluation copy means nothing i have never registered it and it has never asked me to...
one thing boxy found... you MUST use an undernet server to get into the right room...

WHAT is an "undernet server" ?
there is a server list, and we've found that the undernet US servers work best....

Chat rooms operate through a series of servers that bounce the messages off a group of servers. Chat isn't saved anywere except on your computer's client software. Usernet is just one of a few thousand networks of servers that host specific rooms which are also called Channels. Can someone post a partical list of the usenet servers, and the port number? I never liked the Java interface method, it just isn't stable enough to be useable. I think I wrote something last year about how to do this.......
Owen I won't be much help, all I did was download the MIRC program, choose "random Undernet US servers" and join channel "#donziboats"
It's good to see you back.

Owen,
if you install the MIRC chat client and then do the options you get a drop down list of servers. you will see the "undernet" family of servers...
i use irc network set on: ALL
Default port is 6667
just hit connect.. when it connects it'll pop up a window to join a channel.. type #donziboats and whala

Gosh darn it. URL not found. I should know by now to check if the URLs are still working.
Anyway. You can always do a google search to find what is current with IRC soft. :)
Rootsy and I were joined by MattyBoy, and Tamburello last night, there were even a couple of remote shots consumed.
Come on back....
www.mirc.com
download version 6
choose random US undernet servers
join channel "#donziboats"
Matty's buying the first round.... :D
