Suggestion: Chat

Sorunome Fri Jun 05, 2015 10:07 am
What do you guys think of adding a chat to this site? Is there any popular demand? I know I would most likely love to have a chat here :D

It would be a great idea!

I suggest Quakenet irc: Free, you can register channels & names, you can connect to it via an IRC Client (available for PC, Mac, Android, phones, Super Gameboy, so it's no problem to let the Chat run in the background all the time ;-) Some multi-messangers such already support IRC.

For those who do not want to install an IRC client, there's the web interface easily added to the site...

See you in the Chat! :-)

(I took the freedom to register Q for now, so no one "steals" the channel.)

Adding it to the site either as link or e.g.
Code: Select all
<iframe src="img/missing.svg" title="Image not archived: http://webchat.quakenet.org/?randomnick=1&channels=gamebuino&prompt=1&uio=OT10cnVlJjExPTcyb7" width="647" height="400"></iframe>
(customizable color, events, layout - to some extend)

For shameless self-advertisement I wrote one that connects with IRC and hooks up with forum accounts https://omnomirc.omnimaga.org

Neat! Do you suggest another server?
Sorunome Fri Jun 05, 2015 10:53 am
I personally use freenode but that webchat can hook up with any :)
Marcus Fri Jun 05, 2015 10:54 am
Some of the channels I am in are on Quakenet, thus I suggested it :-) But freenode would be just as fine. I am not familiar with channel/user name registrations anymore, though. Though I suppose Rodot has the last word.

For those of you who are interested i have now a bot running which notifies the channel of new posts

great, meybe we could have a more visible link or something similar on the main page, top menu maybe?
Marcus Fri Jul 24, 2015 10:39 am
Yes, that would be nice, and of course I would give OP to Rodot
Sorunome Fri Jul 24, 2015 11:22 am
Or the shoutbox I suggest/made which also hooks up to IRC ;)
