Please read the following before using the chat room - for the first time
|
|
DO NOT
give out your phone number - or any other personal details .
DO NOT refer to any person or business 'by name' if possible . DO NOT use swear words . |
|
When you first join the (chat room) , You will have
a NICKNAME like IrcQnet12345 .
But you can change this by typing in the following ,,, /nick rambo And assuming that nobody else is using that 'nickname' then the name in the right hand column will change - from (IrcQnet12345) to (rambo) . |
|
If you intend to use the JohnstoneNET chat rooms on
a regular basis .
Then its a good idea to start using a IRC CLIENT . There are several to choose from , But a lot of users tend to use a program called MIRC . This can be downloaded from www.mirc.co.uk Once you have mirc installed , You have to ADD the JohnstoneNET IRC SERVER details . ircqnet.icq.com Is 'server name' that you need to type in . (if the ircqnet.icq.com server name isnt showing , Then just select it from the drop down list ,,,,, after you have 'added it' of course) . Click on (connect to server) . After a few seconds , Some text will scroll up the screen , Once this stops - type in the following ,,, /join #paisley A window will popup , And you can chat as normal . |
|
With 'mirc' you can change the font size , text &
backgound colours , Along with several other things .
And if you where to type in ,,, /join #johnstonenet /join #newsuk /join #paisley Then you would have all 3 of the JohnstoneNET chat rooms avalible , And you can 'toggle' between the 3 chat rooms by clicking on the buttons near the top of the screen . |
