AwesomeMcCoolName Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Replace the IRC chat with a chat thats always on if you're on the forum that would be on the side (like what dota2traders has): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liddojunior Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Well it wouldn't be a bad idea. But if you don't like in browser irc chat. You can just use your own irc client. Such as Hexchat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such as Hexchat Two problems with that. Firstly, i'd rather have the chat on the homepage--for convenience. And tied into that, if the chats on the front page, more people would use it.

Avenging Flame Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 I'd rather the irc just be moved to the Freenode network. I am always on IRC, I hang out in the tf2wiki channel, but thats freenode and I am not registered on whatever crappy network this place is on. Freenode is better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators fisk Posted January 30, 2014 Administrators Share Posted January 30, 2014 the IRC gets enough visits from people who can't figure out mibbit as it is If you're going to replace something it should be better But yes not being on gamesurge is a good start, it's a terrible network Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

puddingkip Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 I already told Brad to bring back the old chat the day irc came :c but it cost him money so he said no. I remember that day. And I think that after ~6 months I kind of understand how the IRC works. But not really http://forums.backpack.tf/index.php?/topic/1597-bring-the-old-chat-back/ Luke started a topic.

Teeird Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 Many yes. I haven't used the chat since the old one was taken out. I really liked the old one. This one takes the cake for being the best though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
