Opticraft Community

Hey Guys,  

As long as I have been on the Server I havent been aware that the SMP Server doesnt have an IRC...This would be good for people who are unable to play on the Server or talk on Mumble because they are at school and etc...

However, as much as it would be good having IRC I feel that some people will miss-use it as they may spam the chat bar and greatly annoy the people of the Server.

It is just a suggestion being that the Classic Server has an IRC but the SMP Server doesnt...

Both classic and smp have irc but there down atm

Plugins outdated.

Oh right...Can i please be informed when the SMP IRC is back up and runningthen?
Thanks

The IRC channel is #opticraft-smp on the server rizon.net, so you can check there every now and then.

Ok...Thanks Your_Mine!

No problem.
Also, if you don't have an IRC program, just go to qchat.rizon.net, and enter the channel name there (use your minecraft name as your nickname to avoid confusion).
If you do have an IRC program (such as mIRC), then the server address will be irc.rizon.net (same channel name).

Opticalza removed the IRC plugin. He will be adding another one, but it is not on the top of their priority list.

whats IRC ?

IRC is an internet relay chat. It is a chat box that allows you to chat to other people. What we do, is we connect a bot to the irc channel and the bot lets us see what people are seeing ingame and it makes it so they can see what we say on the irc channel.

It's also helpful because IRC saves the chat sessions as chat logs, so if we find episodes of bad behavior or suspicious activity and we weren't on the server at the time or if we didn't see the event unfold, it's useful to go back in the logs to find out what happened.

Since we don't have an IRC plugin for the SMP server yet, it has pretty much left us blind in one eye.

oh thanks , &thats clever

For the IRC-less Classic server, can't we use WoM for keeping chat logs? Of course, that would require someone to literally sit in Classic all day.

Yes, for some people, sittin' idle is not really a viable option...

What does WoM stand for? This post makes me feel really stupid...
