Chat room registrations

I thought it might be an idea to redress the ballance regarding posts stating 'cannot access chat' or'unable to register'etc.
We currently have :-
Registered Nicks = 4672
Awaiting Nicks = 45 (Those that have partially completed registration but not yet used the confirmation code to activate nick name)
So before you go posting telling us how impossible it is to register or get in the room, think on - how did the other 4672 users ever manage to do it ??
There are ample instructions on the chatroom pages, and a help room manned by chat room ops to assist as well - short of coming round your house to do it for you, there ain't a lot else we can do!
If your PC is steam driven and wont run Java, use or other such IRC software - all easily found by googling the net.
Try reading sites such as which is a user guide and all you need to know written in everyday speak.
When you come into help, and an Op is trying to assist you - stop watching corrie or east enders or whatever, and pay attention, it's so damn frustrating to not get an answer or wait 5 minutes for a reply when others are also waiting to be helped.
So to re-cap, there are comprehensive instructions to follow, Ops to assist in a help room, and other alternatives to Java - so help us to help you, and follow the instructions, or come into help, 4672 have managed to register so far........................
Thanks for that Jon!! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

Did try that Mark, but in which box do you attempt to register the nick ? I tried both but aint havin it ! unless I'm doing something wrong ?
I'll give it another try later but I spent flippin hours on this !

You type the nickname you want into the nickname box and then click 'connect'. You will then connect to the server and you type the rest of the instructions in the chat window.

Right..................I've had another go at this ! ............come on tell me what i'm doing wrong ?
I enter my proposed nick........press connect......goes to page with spoffle etc in red.....I type in the /ns Registerpasswordemailaddy..........................an press the button to the right of the box ..............nothing happens !!!!!!!

and how is it suppose to know where the word register finishes and your password starts, is it supposed to guess? Same with the password and the e-mail address.
Put some spaces in it!
/ns register yourpassword youremailaddress
and don't press the button to the right of the box, press enter and then follow the rest of the instructions in the same way.

manofmuchfun would it help if you looked for the drop down next to the words swingingheaven on the chat screen. The word help is there, if you clicked on that then connect you MIGHT find your way into the help room where an OP could help you

what I assumed was that as with Email you leave no spaces ......see its easy when explained ! an not having a go but its not in the instructions for us dimwits ?

Yes it is!!
4. Once you've chosen a NickName that's free for you to register, type in the following:-
/ns REGISTER yourpassword youremailaddress

That's got spaces in.

I got admin help the first time I had to register but I did it all on my little own-some the second time, so if this dumb blonde Tranny can do it then anyone can. I am completely computer illiterate. So was I just lucky or what? :P rolleyes wink Reading the label on the tin helped :small-print:
Judy............ feeling smug after the event

And some people are beyond help mad
Do you still have the box your PC came in ??? lol rolleyes wink
Quote by manofmuchfun
..............wheres the enter button as steve said ?

It's on your keyboard, usually towards the right hand side below "backspace" and above "shift".
Perhaps I should have used the word 'key'?

wheres the enter button as steve said ?

The Return (Enter) button on your keypad!!

That reminds me of Homer Simpson, when reading some computer insructions which said "Press any key to continue".
Homer: "But where's the Any Key??" :shock: :shock: :shock: lol :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

when i found the chatroom nearly a year ago. i downloaded Mirc. folloed the well labeled instructions and was in quite quickly!.
i do reconmend Mirc though. once you've got past the setting up stage. its a hell of a lot easier and quicker!. plus the PMer dont pop up in fron of your face!.

If you used / etc. you will need to check the junk/bulk mail folder too.................
I'll post what I was gonna in first place (when I thought it was a wind up)
Like I said I gave up with the chatroom months ago because of the hassle to get in there.
As Jon said 4000+ have managed it but how many 1000's havent so why isnt it just made simple without having to download this and that etc..

Well let me see - you need to download software to use the damn thing - you have word or note pad to write letters do you not?? A chatroom needs chatroom software client to work rolleyes :roll:
Like I said, short of coming round your house and doing it for you , it could not be made any easier

To use a chatroom on an IRC server you need to have a version of chat software installed on your PC. The most popular to use are java and mIRC and you can download these from:


Once you have installed one of these you need to register your nickname on the IRC channel by using this command:
/ns register yourpassword youremailaddress
you'll then recieve an e-mail with a code in it to confirm your registration. You then enter this command:
/ns confirm yourcode
Then you join the chatroom and chat to all the nice people in there. We can't make it any simpler than that.
