Hey Grandy, how about an "off topic"area

[Greg0u812]

Seriously.

Most of us have lives outside of gaming and hacking (I know, I know, BLASPHEMY!!! ).
It would be nice to be able to see what others think about while life goes on.

Hell, that's a section I'd even consider moderating!
Make it and I'll do it.

I'm talking about something like a "water cooler" area (family and coworker friendly).
No ****, no b.s., just a nice place to hang out and chat with other members about non PS3 related stuff and hold adult conversations.

I'd vote for an IRC channel.

And Ill bring doughnuts! But yeah an off topic area would be sweet.

[Greg0u812]

IRC is nice, but an off topic area allows more people to see "what youre made of".
That's kind of my whole point.

I'll set up an offtopic area tomorrow or this weekend.

BTW we sort of have an irc channel. #psgroove on EFNet. I say sort of because it is not really MY channel, but I am opped there, and a lot of psgroove.com visitors frequent there. Also theres a psgroove.com news trigger there.

You could always create a channel on our server, you would have channel owner status, where you would have your own rules and be able to set people to be ops etc, also the news trigger would work there too

EFNet is kinda old tho lol. I was thinking more like irc.p2p-network.net or something that has nickserv, chanserv, hostserv, IP hidding, ect, like that. In another word an irc server that uses unrealircd server daemon with anope services. I been using unrealircd daemon servers for over 10 yrs and never seen any stability issues so, its a good irc daemon. Cause to hide IP on efnet you need proxy or BNC and most of the peoples that hangs there are hackers. I went to efnet without proxy or BNC once and I got out of there with a trojan inside my mIRC. EFNet is hacker paradise lol.

Btw if you're considering setting up your own irc server I can help you. I know unrealircd and am very familiared with it and anope. I've been setting up irc networks like that for friends for like 7 yrs if not more. I can also help to setup eggdrops for rss feeds if you want to have that, its easy.

But if you prefer having the irc server running on its own you can always use the one I recommended or one of your choice. Don't go thinking that I'm trying to convince you or anything lol. Just offering help, since that IRC is kinda my field. As long that its got nickserv, chanserv and IP hidding you can count me in.

Hell, even undernet would be better than efnet. They have cservices which can hide your IP when you register and login and set usermode +x and you can also register your channel. Only thing missing on undernet would be nickserv so we can register nicknames.
