Live Chat Rules and Instructions

[Tyler Reed]

LIVE CHAT RULES and INSTRUCTIONS:

Live Chat is an IRC Web Browser connection to irc.cockpitbuilders.com

If you are new to "IRC" Just type a Nick Name into the box on the left of the screen and Press the Chat Button.  A Java window will load and you will be able to chat with everyone.

For those who know what "IRC" is,  please feel free to connect to irc.cockpitbuilders.com with your own IRC client.  The Cockpitbuilders.com server has services running on it, so you will be able to register your nick name and save channels that you create.

Basic Commands:
/nick <name> - Change your name to whatever is in the <name> field
/join #<channel> - Join another chat channel
/msg nickserv register <password> <email> - Registers your name so no one else can use it (fill in the password you would like and your email address
/msg nickserv identify <password> - If your nickname is registered, this will identify you to the server (only required if you are using a registered nickname)

THE RULES:
The rules are simple.  If you are having a large conversation, and you are taking over the channel, move to another room where others can carry on their conversation without disruption. 

Be respectful, and courteous.

Have Fun!
