MacAddict Forums chat
For those interested, we have an unofficial IRC channel for those forumites wishing to chat with their brethren. The channel is #mafirc on the server irc.freenode.net
If you're new to IRC and are running OS X, you may want to try MAFirc.app. It's just a simple program that should connect you directly to #mafirc and help to get you started.
For basic IRC information, including beginners info, and to download clients, visit IRCHelp.org. A couple of good irc clients include
Snak and Ircle, but there are plenty more available.
I'm leaving this thread open in case anyone needs further help or has any comments to add.

Re: MacAddict Forums chat
It usually is this time of morning. If you go in and it's dead, it's often good to just leave the irc client running to see if anyone else swings by. Otherwise we often see people just passing through like trains in the night or whatever it is.

I thought it was "strangers in the night".

We have speeds from "Dead like Sunday Morning" to "Must operate at ADD speeds to keep up" and everywhere in between. Evenings between 8-12 PM EST are the peak times.

You're not cool enough.
I still believe in liberalism today as much as I ever did, but, oh, there was a happy time when I believed in liberals.

Why would anyone be on IRC at seven in the morning?
