Season preview Chat
To give us a chance to discuss to big season changes in real time (and also introduce some of you to the 'wonders' of the chat room); we're organised a time to discuss the new season in the ten-tenths chat room.(so, no excuses about not knowing when people are there for not coming in, ok )
So, come along on Thursday (6th March) at 18:00 GMT. You'll be more than welcome; we don't bite (much); and hopefully we'll be able to have a proper informed discussion (or, then again, maybe not!) |

What about another session for people on the other side of the world and us Europeans who will be up. Perhaps just before or after qualifying?

I'll try - but could someone please post an alternate link - EP did this for me one time and it worked on that link. If I just try to click on the chat in this forum, it says it cannot find my socks.

The link works fine for me. EP is online now, so I'll PM her and ask her to post the alternate link.
As for the chat tomorrow, that time suits me perfectly, so I'll pop in. |

*poof* as if by magic, EP appears!
Some people have experienced problems with the chat room via the ten-tenths portal - if you're having difficulty getting in, you can access the same room from this link http://www.motorsportsearch.com/chat/ If anyone is still having difficulty, please let me know -just a note, if you are connecting from behind a firewall, you may encounter have problems. If you are behind a firewall, you need to ensure that port 6667 is available for traffic. Cheers EP Last edited by EvilPumpkin; 5 Mar 2003 at 09:26. |

The link works, but how does that thing work? All I can 'succesfully' do is to read
"you have 60/40/20 seconds to identify for this nickname" "your nickname has been forcibly changed" to some Guestxxxx and lots of "no IRC commands supported" :confused: |

Thanks, EvilP! And in a chat just now, MagnetON managed to solve Red's problem too.

Just to clarify the above, the server that the chat connects to has a nickname registration database. If you happen to go onto the server with a nickname that's already registered, you will get the same message as Red got.
If that happens, just reconnect with a different nickname. |

I cannot for the life of me get anything sensible out of chat rooms. This is all I get from the URL above:
*** Maxmil [cgiuser@207.5.0.0] has joined #Motorsport *** Topic is: *es *WANT* http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=2405667481 *** Topic set by es [Tue Mar 4 02:01:02 2003] *** Maxmil @ChanServ @es *** Channel created on Wed Mar 5 01:07:38 2003 What in blazes is that supposed to mean? p.s. the chatroom's URL is some Nisson dealer trying to reduce his overpriced inventory on E-Bay. Who cares? Last edited by Maxmil; 5 Mar 2003 at 12:44. |

Maxmil, that is normal - you were in the room, Es was in the room and chanserve was in the room.
Es tends to be asleep at this time of the day and chanserv is an automated process. That's why no-one was talking. The connection is working fine. |

Well I am getting the hang of it. Red and I managed a reasonably coherent conversation partly in color yet.

The overstocked Nissan dealer was included in the channel topic. Channel ops can set the topic of the channel and it appears in this case that Es really wants whatever is at the other end of that link!
Glad you're getting the hang of it! |
