    members should make it a habit to use the chat service provided.

    it's provided by the dedicated folks who run this site for FREE.

    come on in!

    if you're having problems loading the chat applet on this site, i'd recommend mIRC.

    www.mirc.com

    download it, it's free (it does NOT restrict use after the "30 day evaluation" runs out.)

    once you've installed and opened the program, connect to the server [you'll have to fill out some misc. info, like username, e-mail addy, etc].

    in the server window at the bottom, type:

    /server irc.game-dog.com

    the chat runs on an IRC server, and there are thousands of them, irc.***.***

    once you've connected, type

    /join #game-dog

    and wha-LAA!

    you've succesfully connected to the chat service provided by this great site, and are in the chat.

    this program is easy to use, and does not suck up RAM or bandwidth, for those without broadband or a slower pc/laptop.

    it's a much simpler alternative to using the chat applet on this site if it doesn't work with your computer.

    last night there was a crowd, and it's much more entertaining to communicate in real time than arguing via posts and having to sort through things ;)

    while connected, if you double-click on a user's name on the right side of the chat room sscreen, you can open up a message window, and PM back and forth without your conversation being displayed publicly in the channel.

    Again, this does not slow down your computers performance anymore, as the java applets provided on most sites for chat usually do.

    So how many reasons do you have now for not using the chat?

    None.

    Everyone have a good one, hope to see more folks frequent the chat room now.

    *edit* - i'll continually bump this day-to-day until this website's community start to take advantage of this great feature provided for free.

    Thanks Kergin!

    mIRC is the way to go, for sure.

    I'm in there now, I'll sit for a bit. If no one joins, I won't be in for more than an hour or so. But, I'd like to see some memebers hitting it up, so come in, and chat for a bit :p
