Arakon, Bugula, Biomotor_Unitron, and Myself have set up a new #neo-geo channel on efnet. This channel does not fall under the jurisdiction of either the website or the current chat-solutions staff. As such, it is an ideal place to come chat about games and have a good time without having big brother watching. However, since we are not into being swayed by the powers that be, we will not tolerate spamming, flaming or other general idiocy. So if want fun but smart chat...join us on efnet.


If you need help getting on efnet..feel free to PM me.

I recommend MIRC..but that'd mean using the client. Fortunately you can run the client off of a floppy disc since it doesn't install any components to the system. it's self contained.

Hope to see you.

Just to add to that...

If you're totally lost about IRC, here is what you can do to visit the channel:

  • Download <a href="http://www.mirc.com" target="_blank">mIRC</a> (if you're on a Mac, do a search at download.com for IRCle)
  • Find an - <a href="http://www.efnet.org/ircdb/servers.php" target="_blank">EFNET server</a> (irc.prison.net seems to be a favorite) and type that into your IRC client, using the default port listed (6667)
  • Once you connect, type "/join #neo-geo" (without the quotes)
  • Chat away!

One of the benefits of having this channel running on EFNET is that the EFNET servers host an infinitely large amount of users, meaning that you'll be able to chat with people that might not necessarily be from these forums, and can offer a fresh perspective on gaming.

Even though the channel is named #neo-geo, this doesn't mean that you're stuck talking only Neo, most of the regulars are into just about every console there is, not to mention the tech support that Arakon can offer. :D
