Undernet and freenode.  mIRC.

Friends on both and IRC is a great resource to get and to give technical help.  Every programmer and developer should be on it.

Sad thing is, I don't think a single one of them even knew what I was talking about. Granted they are mostly front line support folk, but damn.

 

IRC pretty much got me into IT.



Got me laid, too

+1

Funny, i just played a little CS last night for the first time in ages. The old server I used to play on still had a few people on it... But nothing like the hay days.

It was my source for files before torrent

USENET



 

Ditto.

From 7th Sphere to BitchX/irssi to getting it wet.  

It's still September.

 

IRC according to NUMB3RS

I still scream at my monitor, every time I see this.

 

Still have a room that I've had since about 2000.  Couple of people all met in an online game, we've stayed friends through the years.  Watched one kid graduate highschool, go to college, do two years in the Airforce, get out and continue his life.   It's been a long time.    

Nice way to stay connected.

Run IRC and SILC over VPNs for private, secure chat.

WHAT THE FUCK

Calm down bro. It's like using "kleenex" to refer to a tissue...

Anyway, irssi is my preferred client.

It was probably Monkster or PrimeMonk that did it....... ;)



 

LOL, samsies.  a/s/l???   Worked surprisingly well for its time.





 

You owe me a new brain. That clip broke mine...



 

Awesome.



They should do a show on assault rifles next.
 

I'd never seen that one.

This.  My buddies and I owned Aethar for a while.

HAY GYS WHAT CHAT ROOM IS TIS???



 

Hahahahah yup

Ahhhhh IRC....one of my favorites from Bash.org if anyone remembers that site....

<MortalKombat> stfu mat|t u cu.nt
* Acaila sets mode: +b MortalKombat!*@*
<@Acaila> FINISH HIM
<mat|t> rofl
<MortalKombat> omg wtf man
* MortalKombat was kicked by Acaila (forward, forward, back, back, forward, punch)
<@Acaila> FATALITY!

Whats your furnet nick?

"Baker", "BakerMike", or "BakerMikeRomeo" - the same ones I use everywhere -- it's been a while since I logged in so I don't remember which I used last.

bash.org is awesome, even if most of the copy/pastes are probably bullshit.

 

I had forgotten all about bash!

<Guo_Si> Hey, you know what sucks?
<TheXPhial> vaccuums
<Guo_Si> Hey, you know what sucks in a metaphorical sense?
<TheXPhial> black holes
<Guo_Si> Hey, you know what just isn't cool?
<TheXPhial> lava?

<JonJonB> Purely in the interests of science, I have replaced the word "wand" with "wang" in the first Harry Potter Book
<JonJonB> Let's see the results...

<JonJonB> "Why aren't you supposed to do magic?" asked Harry.
<JonJonB> "Oh, well -- I was at Hogwarts meself but I -- er -- got expelled, ter tell yeh the truth. In me third year. They snapped me wang in half an' everything

<JonJonB> A magic wang... this was what Harry had been really looking forward to.

<JonJonB> "Yes, yes. I thought I'd be seeing you soon. Harry Potter." It wasn't a question. "You have your mother's eyes. It seems only yesterday she was in here herself, buying her first wang. Ten and a quarter inches long, swishy, made of willow. Nice wang for charm work."
<JonJonB> "Your father, on the other hand, favored a mahogany wang. Eleven inches. "

<JonJonB> Harry took the wang. He felt a sudden warmth in his fingers. He raised the wang above his head, brought it swishing down through the dusty air and a stream of red and gold sparks shot from the end like a firework, throwing dancing spots of light on to the walls

<JonJonB> "Oh, move over," Hermione snarled. She grabbed Harry's wang, tapped the lock, and whispered, 'Alohomora!"

<JonJonB> The troll couldn't feel Harry hanging there, but even a troll will notice if you stick a long bit of wood up its nose, and Harry's wang had still been in his hand when he'd jumped - it had gone straight up one of the troll's nostrils.

<JonJonB> He bent down and pulled his wang out of the troll's nose. It was covered in what looked like lumpy gray glue.

<JonJonB> He ran onto the field as you fell, waved his wang, and you sort of slowed down before you hit the ground. Then he whirled his wang at the dementors. Shot silver stuff at them.

<JonJonB> Ok
<JonJonB> I have found, definitive proof
<JonJonB> that J.K Rowling is a dirty DIRTY woman, making a fool of us all
<JonJonB> "Yes," Harry said, gripping his wang very tightly, and moving into the middle of the deserted classroom. He tried to keep his mind on flying, but something else kept intruding.... Any second now, he might hear his mother again... but he shouldn't think that, or he would hear her again, and he didn't want to... or did he?
<melusine > O_______O
<JonJonB> Something silver-white, something enormous, erupted from the end of his wang

<JonJonJonB> Then, with a sigh, he raised his wang and prodded the silvery substance with its tip.

<JonJonJonB> 'Get - off - me!' Harry gasped. For a few seconds they struggled, Harry pulling at his uncles sausage-like fingers with his left hand, his right maintaining a firm grip on his raised wang.

Furnet?

EFnet and Freenode

Huh. I always meant to ask if you were that same Foxxz. In fact, I may have done. I can't remember shit.


It's an IRC network for furries. FurNet.org

It's best if you didn't know. Trust me on this.

 

havent been there in 12+ years, what are the good servers and channels to join?

I am. I haven't been around the last few months due to moving and poor internet connection.

I'm cruising the top 100 now at Bash and laughing pretty hard.  Everyone in the office is wondering what's so funny and it's just hard to explain why I find something like this:

* ab is away - gone, if anyone talks in the next 25 minutes as me it's bm
 being an asshole -          
<ab> HAHAHA DISREGARD THAT, I SUCK COCKS

...is so hilarious.

Still just as funny as the first time

To funny.  IRC was and still is a ton of fun.

WOW!  But hey, they got the screenshot!

I prefer a BBS on a 56k dial up running off a 386dx66 for the ultimate security.....


mirc is cool too, was a part of an old group there back in the day...apparently they are still around.

I fucked Violet.

 

This was always my favorite.

 and i'm out of this thread

You never played L.O.R.D?





 

efnet, undernet, freenode, lots of privates, cybercrime research will take you to some funky places.



Welcome to IRC, where the women are men and the kids are cops.

legend of the red dragon..... ;-)
i miss some of the txt based stuff, it was like choose your own adventure books but better! haha...i'm out on opsec on this one

I have no clue what IRC is    But that me LOL fucking hard

I always throw a few superfluous Internal Revenue Code references into NFA gun trusts, just to make them more tactical.

7th Sphere and EFNet back in the day when port 139 was still vulnerable.

So did everyone else.
