>>>>>[ This "Roleplaying on irc" discussion seems to have really
taken off...
Right - for all of those who are interested in roleplaying on the Efnet:
#AD&D is where it happens - most roleplayers end up there sooner or later.
To get a list of the games being organised, /msg noppa games and you'll get
a list with times, channels, etc. Robert wrote:

.. and it is, really - you have characters from AD&D, cyberpunk, Future, etc.,
all mixing on the same channel... On irc, most roleplayers have a character,
like I'm an elven decker (funnily enough) and, when on #AD&D, they kind of
role play that character... I don't know much about the Undernet, really..
The server I used to use is gone now, and I don't know where to find another..
Any ideas Dylan? ]<<<<<

I hate to sound really stupid, but since Albion
JUST got internet I'm having to learn all sorts
of new things *grumble* *sort of*. Anyone want
to help me out on how to get on IRC etc...
I'm going to go nuts this weekend when 80% of campus
leaves for stupid easter break. (ok ok, not stupid...
just a pain because I can't\won't go home).
Thanks

The IRC clients can be found via FTP at cs.bu.edu (pub/irc/clients or
some such). They are available for unix, VMS, and emacs.
