      Okay, here's detailed instructions for Trillian (version 0.74)...

      1. Open "Connection Manager."

      2. Choose IRC as "Chat Medium."

      3. Press the "Add" button.

      4. Fill in the fields like below (example):



      After that, press "OK."

      5. Fill in the rest of the boxes like following (example):



      And finally press "Set nick on all servers."

      6. Click "Connect."

      7. Now the gray icon will indicate that you're connected to settler.apolyton.net.

      8. Right click the IRC icon and choose "Toggle Status Window."

      9. Now the connection window has been opened. You can use any normal IRC commands as usual.



      10. If you want to enter the #apolyton channel, type "/join #apolyton." In th case you want to see a list of channels available and how many users they have, you can retrieve the channel list by pressing the "List Channels" like below. Then press the "Get list!" button. Voilá!





      Hint: By double clicking a channel name, you will automatically join it.

      11. Finally at the #apolyton channel. Now you can start talking.



      12. When you want to leave the channel, just close the chat window. If you want to close the connection to the ACS IRC server, just type "/quit" or right click at the gray IRC icon in the main window of Trillian and choose "Disconnect."

        Do check your IRC settings in Trillian, HT.

          It seems to be running 20 minutes on, 20 minutes off...

                    Its working, and is good.

                    Questions:

                    Is this going to replace the current chatroom? If so, does this lighten the server load? If not, what is it going to be used for? Will it add to the server load? Can this have more users online than the board chat and is that why the creation?

                    Not criticizing, just wondering its full purpose. Thanks Markos.

                        Hm, it worked for me, but I don't think I'll be using it a lot. I'm not a real fan of IRC...

                          Is this going to replace the current chatroom?
                          no, it will be used for big chats and turnchats
                          Will it add to the server load?
                          doesnt seem that it will
                          Can this have more users online than the board chat and is that why the creation?
                          yes and yes
