IRC?
 
Why isn't there more people using this? It is a great way for people to communicate with eachother, and adds another layer for player-GM chat. Tons of people still use it and I would love for P99 to have a flourishing community within it.

Agreed! Minus the player-GM chat part. GMs don't like to be bothered on IRC.

They are nice to have there. If you go to any popular UO shard's IRC channel it is full of GM's that will help players whenever they need it.

Players and GMs alike should join us and share their favorite music with the community! It's like IRC, but with music!!!

Kind of a neat way to meet new players that you wouldn't otherwise bump-into.

Call attention to your post but don't link to the server information. Might want to post that. Just a thought.
Sure we can search for it, but putting it in the thread makes the search so much easier.

Used to be a sticky on it, but yeah all are welcome in the P99 music channel ;)

Why would you need a new browser?

I think you're mistaking GMs for developers :)

Anyway, for the past 2~ years or so the IRC channel has been overrun with some of the rudest people on the internet. 3 years ago it used to be a happenin' place and the people there were enjoyable to talk to. The channel never really received much moderation, so IRC was basically live R&F. Which is sad because it could be such a great tool for the server.

I did happen to check on it recently. There were very few people in it and no one spoke for a few days. So I'm guessing it's pretty dead now. I'd definitely start hanging out there again if we could get the population up. Need to do some advertising I suppose.
