How do I get to the SDMB IRC channel, again?

I’ve been told before. But I forgotted.

Get an IRC client, such as mIRC. Connect to an Undernet server, and then join the #straightdope channel.

Hurry, we are in there talking about you RIGHT NOW.

Ephemera · April 11, 2004, 4:22am

Or just go to Undernet.org and join the chat and type in /join #straightdope.

Silver_Fire · April 11, 2004, 4:24am

Or you could have just remembered it the first time you were told! :rolleyes:

RickJay · April 11, 2004, 4:27am

…And there’s not a soul in there.

Berkut · April 11, 2004, 4:28am

There are 22 people in here right now. Make sure you connected to an Undernet server, and typed the channel name right. “#straightdope”

Doomtrain · April 11, 2004, 4:41am

And we’re still talking about you!

Berkut · April 11, 2004, 4:45am

I may have to post the log, I don’t know if he’s gonna make it.

I just think it’s cool that a thread about #straightdope is in GQ.

Fill in your information. Pick any old channel in the list, you will be leaving straight after.
You get a pop up saying “do you want to install blahdiblah”, say yes.
When you have the chat window in front of you, write this:

/join #straightdope

We will be there with open arms and explain all about how to connect with a client.

For the record, I don’t believe a word of what Berkut is saying about you!
