Chat Room (ZU)

From Zelda Wiki.org

The Zelda Universe chat room is an IRC room connected to the ZU community. It can be found on the Gnug-IRC network on #zelda.

Despite being connected to the ZU community, Zelda is actually very rarely discussed. Instead, the topics will vary from anything, such as general gaming to music to forum drama to, well... whatever, really.

Along with the ZeldaInformer chat (whom #zelda folk are often intermingled with) the Zelda Universe chat room is one of the largest Zelda-related chat rooms on the internet.

History

The Zelda Universe chatroom/IRC channel was created in July 2003 by Lozzie, originally residing on EFNet. Eventually, it was moved to the TAUniverse IRC server, which nowadays goes by Gnug-IRC.

Connecting

If you'd like to connect, google for an IRC client. And yes, for the mac/linuxtards, there are clients for almost every OS. Hell, if you have 'telnet' you can connect.

Once you'd downloaded your IRC client, follow these steps:

1) In the main window, click in the text box. Type "/server irc.gnug.org" (without the quotes.)
2) If you haven't chosen a nickname/other details, type "/nick yournick", without the quotes. yournick would be the nickname you want.
3) You'll get a flood of text. Sometimes, you may get a prompt showing channels. Type "#zelda". If not, type "/join #zelda".
4) Voila!

Alternatively, you can use ZU's webchat applet (located here)
