Re: BZFLAG.org Chat Room ... can we make one?
There are plenty of already existing online relay chat channels. You can access it for free online, here: http://webchat.freenode.net/
Type your bzflag username as your nickname, and the channel as #bzflag
Here is the wiki page: http://wiki.bzflag.org/BZFlag_on_IRC
By the way, this section is for news and announcements, however your post is a question.

As said, BZFlag already has its own IRC Channel open for anyone to join and chat in.
How active and visited it is is another story, though.

What is the other story, then? It has always seemed quite active to me.Sub wrote:As said, BZFlag already has its own IRC Channel open for anyone to join and chat in.

I've been on the chat channel daily (365 days a year) for the past 6+ years...Sub wrote:As said, BZFlag already has its own IRC Channel open for anyone to join and chat in.

FYI @ sub: There are lots of bz related channels....some team channels, some league, some player and some server channels.

Re: BZFLAG.org Chat Room ... can we make one?
Depends on what you understand as "active". 20+ active users chatting at one time? Doubt it, even though such a number is nothing uncommon for IRC channels around.Constitution wrote:What is the other story, then? It has always seemed quite active to me.
I know there are multiple of them, never said there weren't.kierra wrote:FYI @ sub: There are lots of bz related channels....some team channels, some league, some player and some server channels.
If I might add, the channels themselves do sound a bit unreasonable since half of the game is chatting in-game already... but never-mind that, I honestly do not see it how this turned out into some sort of disagreement over nothing.
There are IRC channels that are BZFlag-focused. Everyone is free to visit them at any point. That's that.
Excuse me if you were too shocked by my "activity" input, I would like to take that back, looking at those reactions.
Re: BZFLAG.org Chat Room ... can we make one?
Perhaps this is the wrong place to ask this, but wasn't there a chat system integrated in the game set to release in 3.0? Would there be any hope to bring that to a 2.x release, or was it still too buggy?
Re: BZFLAG.org Chat Room ... can we make one?
It's not like more than 20+ players are playing at any given time anyway. 20 at a time is not bad at all - you can actually follow what someone is saying, versus #fw on Efnet for instance.

As the most of the active players come from the US, the game has approximally 30-40 players online at one point.
That would bring those players playing on around 5-8 maps at one moment.

I started a new topic some related to this one, but some different too. I invite all to participate.
