For those who don't know (or those who do but are setting up a new computer) we have an IRC room which typically has about 30 people in at any one time.

#rpgdlIf you're looking for your own IRC client, check into
mIRC. You can AIM Halbarad if you need help setting it up (I use Gaim/Pidgin myself, which is a more general chat program not as taylored to IRC).
We're back to sharing a server with Soulriders, so you should be able to use their Java client if necessary - or you can use other public clients, such as mibbit.com.
