Try irc.everywherechat.com Port: 6667

  I just installed the Integrated Chat from the SMF website, so I'm not sure of the specifics.

The direct link via a browser is:
http://irc.everywherechat.com:8000/?room=GolfHos


From their FAQ:

Q: How do I connect using mIRC?
 

A: To connect using mIRC or another IRC client, simply use your client's options to connect to irc.everywherechat.com on port 6667 or 7000. We also have a copy of mIRC available for you that is already configured for EveryWhereChat.com. You can download it here

Q: Do you support the use of IRC clients?
 

A: EveryWhereChat does support IRC clients. We have tested the following clients.

mIRC
ircZ
pIRCh
Miranda IM (http://www.miranda-im.org)
Trillian
ircle

Server: irc.everywherechat.com

The problem with this is that if someone in the IRC world already has your nickname, you can't have it too.

Ah, I didn't realize how that worked.  There was an option to automatically append a suffix to your GolfHos username to get around the unique nickname issue.

The default config of the chat used "_abbrv" or something like that, so my IRC name would be "dystopia_abbrv".  Would you prefer if I enable the automatic suffix?  Any ideas for a suffix?  I'm not sure that "dystopia_ho, Salamander_ho, stroh_ho" is the best idea.

Another option might be to find a chat option that avoids IRC and is isolated, but some people might want to use their own IRC client.

Or I could just tweak it to not carryover the GolfHos username automatically and make people login manually.

It's probably a firewall config for us- I can get in the chatroom at work, but not at home.  Huh? Angry Embarrassed Cry
