nope I think he was talking about the other dude but like I said above he lost me. He was more cryptic than the Times fendish Sudoku puzzle.

Talking about IRC reminds me of why i stopped playing WoW.
Its not about the game, it's the people who play it.

No actually.

It's not always that obviouse to the less savvy, someone taking advantage of you is their issue not yours tbh.

and irc allso gives access to instant contact to the E&E ppl at #e&e

I think u find most here are bashing daoc.prydwen rather than the IRC application itself. I think the application is pretty pants tho, but im sure thats just me.

Of course we're all supposed to be experts aren't we when we do something for the first time.

Dont you have to have some kind of flags or something to prevent people knackering channels and stuff? Ie some kind of protection set up. I do know I was in a channel and some unknown idiot used some hack and locked out the channel and all the people ended up having to clear a trojan. I dont recall accepting a file either, probably hacked that too. Went something like randomtard@lookimgrowinghairsroundmyscroat has sent \@$"148e to the channel. "You cannot enter the channel Channel doesnt exist" Warning norton has detected the trojan tardAruleshisownbrain.exe

That wasnt on pryd.net, was on some Us Football online server that shared with quake and stuff.

My experience of the pryd irc stuff was via the ascending dawn channel which as Naicara says was handy, but the grieifing from enemy players wasn't worth logging in to hear. I recall some Mael/Bo guys coming in to offer their words of wisdom and thought I'd delete the program.

No need to waste the oxygen here etc..

IRC is a great tool once you understand how to use it

"Lots of people with bad experience or just prejudice here, I wont disagree on that there are less morons on IRC than there are anywhere else but keep in mind that there is also some perfectly sane channels that can prove very useful and friendly too."

Dared; now since i disagree with ya i got prejudice?
