#eu on irc.holonet.org
A permanent IRC channel for all Expanded Universe discussion has opened up on holonet.org, anyone who is interested in chatting about anything EU related is welcome to join.
To connect
That’s #eu on irc.holonet.org for the IRC know-it-alls. Set it up your favorite IRC program or point your browser at http://holonet.org/chat.php/eu.
Recommend
The Java client linked above works pretty well, but sometimes lags. I recommend using a dedicated IRC program like mIRC (Windows,) Colloquy (Mac,) or Chatzilla. (Any Mozilla-based browser.)
Chat Mods
Dunc, Broox, McEwok, Rohniss and Havac have auto op on a trial basis. The chat is not heavily moderated, they are there mostly to take care of the trolls.
Hope you drop in.
