I’d been idling there too till I rebooted and forgot to log back in–I don’t get a notification if someone joins the channel but if you join and talk I’ll see it flash if I’m there and will say hi back!

I wanted to pop in, but my Friday nights are rededicated to SYFY with new episodes of Eureka and Haven.

Plus I don’t have a clue about how IRC works/used to work. I did get it set up so I can get into the chat, though.
