OK... got the chat room up and running.
There is an alternate way of chatting through your web browser if you have java. Only type in a nickname in the log in form... no email.

Here's the direct link.

I tried! But didn't fully connect. I logged in and could see messages, but couldn't post anything.
I use Opera as my browser of choice so that might be the reason. It doesn't always work like Internet Explorer.

Although, do sign in w/ your forum screen name so we can recognize you. :)

I'm really confused now.

Just don't forget the "rest" of us "back here," OK? And....if you happen to have any earth-shattering thoughts while chatting, would someone please act as "scribe" and let us know too???

Blessings to you all! It's fun to see you all excited about new possibilities. Good job!!!

Love and prayers--

Theodora

Hi Willow....

Thanks for coming back ...... I'm having trouble getting into the chatroom. Trying to work it out. I can get to the site but can't seem to connect. Maybe Java? How do I know if it is installed as a brouser?

Yes, I do know much about computers, just how to get my work out as long as there are no problems.

Love,
Peanut

Sorry Willow,

I'm posting now on two threads with the same questions. Let's say here. OK?

I can get to the site but after I put in my nname it says I don't have or am not on a channel.

Does this relate to Java?

butterfly
06-04-2006, 12:12 PM
You do need Java on to get into the chatroom. butterfly

Willow

I found a place to download java:

I have an alternate link to get into the chat room for you all who want to try it.

http://www.40something.nolady.net/chat/index.php

You have to change the name of the room to be #spiritualabuse and write your nickname instead of webuser.

They say it's a better web chat with more features.

At least it loaded! Maybe it will load faster next time.
Personally, I like using the IRC software better than java chatting.

i downloaded the irc how do i use it? The java takes about 2 - 3 min to load

Willow

I don't know exactly how to use mIRC. I use something called SNAK for macintosh computers. I did find the instructions on the mirc web site that might be a little clearer.

http://www.mirc.com/install.html

Hope this helps!

I've been able to get to the chatroom by the java link, but I'd like to use mirc. When I use that to connect, I can't find the channel.

I'm wondering if I need a specific server on the starlink network?

I have the same problem. I downloaded it, buthten they tod me register and pay $20. Java is the only way I can get there.

I'm using the mirc software on a 30 day trial. I'm sure that you could too, if you would want to. If I remember right, you only need to pay the $20 once and you can get upgrades as they're availabe for life.

That's not really too bad when you consider how much some software costs. Still - java works and that's what matters.

But then they told me register and pay $20.

And you believed them? :rolleyes:

Let my 17 year old son at it and he will find a way to make them think they owe you money. :D

yeshua'smags
06-06-2006, 09:52 AM
OK, Tke! I could use the extra cash! :D

I didn't pay it, I;m on the 30 day trial. I can see my husband's face now when I tell him I need $20 to chat! Hahahaha, yeah that won't happen.

I don't want to pay for something I can do for free anyway.;)

But thank you, Hope for trying to help me!:D

I got it to work.

I don't know exactly what I needed to do. The channel didn't come up when I used the "list channels" command, so I typed it in.

At this point, I have to leave the chat/forum mode and get some work done. I'll try again later :)

Just tried it. First time on a chat room. Right now, don't have much time to chat. Just wanted to see how it works. Looks like only one other person on now.

Good work Amy. ;)

I had the same experience today - checked in twice, once in the moring and once this afternoon and no one was there either time except the sysops (system operator.)
Maybe we need to poll everyone to see what time of day is most convenient.

Willow

I'm here now. Hard for me to chat during the day though.

The server is starlink-irc.org and the channel is #spiritualabuse. You can manually join the channel by typing /join #spiritualabuse if you use mirc or java... me thinks

Heya peanut... it worked... but not in time for me to see your reply. I headed out to the farm and then on a long bike ride today. I'm pooped! No chat for me tonight. I'll be in tomorrow morning though... earlyish. I'll post before I go in the chat room.
