| - | ==== IRC ==== | ||
| - | [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IRC |From Wikipedia]]: Internet Relay Chat (IRC) is a protocol for live interactive Internet text messaging (chat) or synchronous conferencing. It is mainly designed for group communication in discussion forums, called channels, but also allows one-to-one communication via private message. | ||
| - | Alternate explanation: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O2rGTXHvPCQ | ||
| - | |||
| - | ==== I thought we were using Discord? ==== | ||
| - | TEST's primary chat system is [[Discord]], IRC is mostly around so that we have a fallback should discord decide to once again die in the middle of a StratOp. A couple of features don't work as well on IRC as they do on Jabber, with announcements being the most important one. | ||

| - | ==== Getting an IRC account ==== | ||
| - | TEST's IRC network requires you to have an active Auth account and an EVE Online account with a character in a corporation or alliance that has been enabled for IRC access. | ||
| - | |||
| - | To create an IRC account: | ||
| - | # Login to your [[https://auth.pleaseignore.com|Auth]] account. | ||
| - | # Chose Add Service. | ||
| - | # Select IRC from the list. | ||
| - | # Enter the password you want to use to login. | ||
| - | # Click Create Account. | ||
| - | |||
| - | Please note that your nickname for IRC - while connecting - has to be exactly like it is being displayed in Auth, otherwise the servers can't authenticate you. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ==== Connecting to TEST IRC ==== | ||
| - | You will have to configure your [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_Internet_Relay_Chat_clients |IRC client]] so that it knows how to connect to our servers: | ||
| - | # server name: irc.pleaseignore.com | ||
| - | # port: ''6667 or 6697 (both ssl enforced)'' | ||
| - | # nickname: ''your primary character's name without spaces and special characters, all lower case'' | ||
| - | # password: the password you've configured for this service account in Auth | ||
| - | |||
| - | ===== Limitations ===== | ||
| - | At the moment you will only be able to connect to IRC once, we are still looking into allowing multiple connections. | ||
