I need to confirm all people that are interested as some people say they are but I haven't spoken to them properly yet. Tell me here if you are DEFINATELY interested and then I will give you instructions about mirc if you don't know about it already.
Look forward to hearing from some of you.
I've got Q3A and UT. I'm (trying to) download TO at the moment, but it's damn slow on a 56k modem!
Can anyone burn it onto CD for me by any chance?

IRC is a way of communicating over the net - "Internet Relay Chat". Servers run IRC daemons to let you connect, and talk to anyone else on the same network (a network is a series of linked servers). There are various programs to let you do this, mIRC is probably the most friendly, but you can also get Xchat and BitchX for Windows. The program just lets you connect to the server. Once there, you can join any of the public rooms, and chat privately with any other users connected. It's a good way of communicating with large numbers of people, and the source of many good quotes for our file..
Summarised:
Network -> Server -> Channel ("room") -> User
xchat.org
bitchx.org
mirc.com
mIRC 6 just released, supports multiple servers, so you can be on more than one at any time.

http://www.mirc.com is where you can get mirc 6 although some people might prefer different scripts, like Tracerscript which has a bit more humour to it, although the thing has a tendency to cause a lot of flooding.
