Re: maintainers/coordinators ?
 

For IRC, i could be online whenever i turn on the computer (although i am not always there). Just for the sake of getting it used and to see if people actually join in. I would also try to encourage IRC usage on the website/forum. Lets see how that works.

I suggest we do that all, or perhaps have some text at the top of the website that IRC is a place to be.

me and various others have been using that JAVA irc plugin.......i communicate with PMB, T-Wrecks and Austin on our common projects. i think it should stay......and ol squaly can do what he offered. if when we are all online we just get in that channel and simply idle there......people may stay if they visit it......when no one is there.....the guy who checks......wont stay either.

about the filebase manager
ill do it......just inform me how and and and.....ill take that off yer hands...im quite glad to support all of you

Maby you should link with another small network like EckoNet ( irc.eckonet.co.uk ) to get more interest. IRC is a great thing, if people see that you are running a good network with a good purpose they will come. It may take some work but they will. Also, i know where you can get the service bot codes and the IRC code for the ones Quakenet uses =). Im very interested with all this.

i found a really cool site......
www.flashbuttons.com

gotta look at those menus.....they have a generator and you can generate your own navbar with thier buttons(range from cheeky to really cool looking) .....whoevers doing the site might want to have a look.....seems to be easily configured.....(name for button, link for it, targetname too, and pic colors as well)

i can help with flash and php/mysql if needed.

if you want a US file mirror, i have some space i am willing to share.

About linking a network ... i have a friend here that runs a irc network (as network admin) irc.dotneko.net.

He would be interested in linking, plus we have the plus that we wouldnt have to config, maintain it, he would do that, and we wouldnt have to run the services bots, coz theiy already got services linked to their network.

PMB, OK, your opinions. Everyone else also welcome to reply of course :=)

Re: maintainers/coordinators ?
 

Well if you recall well I've already proposed to join a broader IRC network :) At that time this wasn't possible because we were running the BSD IRC daemon which I had to hack to make it support usernames longer than 15 characters, thus making it incompatible with other IRC servers. But since we can now, letzdoit!

Word up!

Re: maintainers/coordinators ?
 

the irc network i mentioned: My boss (kinda boss) runs it. He runs a hosting company and is very very reliable.

Re: maintainers/coordinators ?
 

Do they run channel / nickname services ?
