    Whenever I try to connect through mIRC It always times out. I left it trying for about half an hour, and it had tried in the region of 80 times, but it didn't work.

    Sounds like you're behind a firewall...

    Try both servers listed in the Community/Chatrooms section.

    Hmmm....I've been wondering where you've been Avarahtar. Used to see you around alot at night, but not lately....guess I know why now. Maybe this is why the chat has been rather empty as of late....or perhaps I just don't go at the right times anymore :)

    [​IMG] The chatroom is totally separate from the site, so if it doesn't load, it's the chat server that's down. It happens from time to time, so I try to get everyone to use mIRC since that will never fail because you can choose among two servers.

    Anyway, I tried it just now and it works, so it must have been fixed.

    I think it was a problem with the planet Z server, because when I tried the irc.webmaster server, it connected fine, but with planet Z it still wouldn't connect. SO anyone still not getting through with mIRC, try switching to the irc.webmaster.com server.
