Rakuten06 Posted January 25, 2008 Posted January 25, 2008 Everyone, since no one is on Ventrilo anymore, we need a new chatroom that will satisfy everyone that is not include the feature where the person is talking to the mic to the computer. Something that will use text chat all the time and also free.
Razor Posted January 27, 2008 Posted January 27, 2008 I connect to it from time to time... gotta say I love that little sound it makes when it connects.
Meeko Posted January 27, 2008 Posted January 27, 2008 I connect to it from time to time... gotta say I love that little sound it makes when it connects. I see a Razor =OOOO
Rakuten06 Posted January 27, 2008 Posted January 27, 2008 Well, Razor. Go ahead and join in the chatroom... I and L.C. (Lost Cause) struck up a chat...
Krista Posted January 27, 2008 Posted January 27, 2008 I check in from time to time, but eh.. I've only actually saw people in the room like three times? Krista
Tarin Posted January 27, 2008 Posted January 27, 2008 (edited) Well, I just got my microphone set up. But I can't always talk freely. It was funny seeing my old vent setup with the videogame servers I used to play at on the server list! Edit: Correction, I just destroyed my microphone. =( Edited January 27, 2008 by Tarin
BeaStKid Posted January 27, 2008 Posted January 27, 2008 i too check in from time to time and have had a wonderful chat with some people as well
Krista Posted January 27, 2008 Posted January 27, 2008 I just was kicked out of Ventrilo and I don't know why? Here is the error message I keep receiving for it: "You have been kicked from the server, duplicate IP's aren't allowed for your account." Krista
JSmith Posted January 27, 2008 Author Posted January 27, 2008 If you connect to the server, then your connection is interupted somehow (computer restart or internet unplugged or whatnot), you have to wait a few minutes before reconnecting to the server because it thinks you're still in there.
BeaStKid Posted January 28, 2008 Posted January 28, 2008 "You have been kicked from the server, duplicate IP's aren't allowed for your account." Ouch! Couldn't it just say so....to login after a few minutes....
Former Member Posted January 31, 2008 Posted January 31, 2008 woo hoo i got it set up go me! and it was actually easy once i realized what i was doing wrong. Thanks for the tutorials!.
Krista Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 No one is ever using the GA Ventrilo thing... anymore. Bah.
BeaStKid Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 No one is ever using the GA Ventrilo thing... anymore. Bah. My PC is on a hiatus... Sorry, but all my messenger and Ventrilo related activity is through my PC...
Tristan Thinks Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 I'd love to join the chat but unfortunately GNU/Linux isn't supported. The shame about services like Ventrillo that rely on proprietary software is that there isn't universal support for all devices or operating systems, and open-source programmers don't have the opportunity to add support themselves. The beauty of IRC is it is an Internet standard, openly available to all, that can be (and has been) implemented in clients for all manner of devices and operating systems. Some clients are better than others, but the IRC standard and the ircd (IRC Daemon) server networks were used as the model for all the major proprietary instant messenger chat services like AIM and MSN. The other advantage of IRC is that there are a multitude of distributed networks where you can create a channel (aka room) for special interests. This means it isn't reliant on one server, and can gain users because they discover the channel whilst using others on the same network. I use IRC as the backbone for a members-only chat client/server system on some of my web properties. On top of the basic IRC text chat for low-bandwidth connections is streaming audio and/or video using a flash client (It would be Java if Sun hadn't let their media API support die) and the open-source Flash media server Red5 with some of my own customisations. Done well, this kind of leveraging of existing technologies can allow everyone to enjoy communicating with whatever client they prefer. For those who want to try/use IRC I've registered #gayauthors on dal.net. If you use an IRC client connect to one of the dal.net servers and then /join #gayauthors. You can register your nickname using NickServ: /nick <MyPreferredNickname> /nickserv register <Password> <email@address> You can get help with NickServ (or ChanServ the channel registration server): /nickserv help /nickserv help register /chanserv help
CoLeYy Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 i have irc already and tryin to go into that chan it says that its illegal then i did the /join#gayauthors and it says invite only
Tristan Thinks Posted March 10, 2008 Posted March 10, 2008 i have irc already and tryin to go into that chan it says that its illegal then i did the /join#gayauthors and it says invite only That does seem rather strange! I've double-checked the channel modes and there's no sign of it being set +i (invite only). Try again. If you have problems use one of my instant messenger personas and we can work out what's going on!
