Okay guys.

First thing, we will not change from IRC. You are free to find another IRC server without that spam block, feel free to suggest a move there. But I wonder why all the people are complaining now when the chat was there for a long, long time before.

Second thing, I will keep deleting stupid posts. The "freeforums chat" as you call it was what we used all the time.

Third thing, if you think Mibbit sucks, try XChat, mIRC or ChatZilla.
The server is irc.darkmyst.org
Channel is #runouw.com

I dunno, maybe you can try irc.purplesurge.com ? I haven't tested for spam block yet.

I say we wipe half the chat archive. When there are 40,000 + messages, of course it's gonna crash the server sooner or later.

It's not about space used, it's about the processing power.

Agreed. I know we aren't changing from the IRC, but this is retarded. Why is it taking this long to fix the chat? Can you guys actually do something about it? If you already are...then.

I mean, have you figured out what to do so the same problem won't happen again.

In the meantime, I'm gonna stay off the IRC. Taking a break from it.

*sigh* It's not Mibbit, which is causing the problem, it's the server. lrn2technology :p

Anyways, I changed the server, we are now trying Rizon. Please check out the new backup chat in the first post and tell me if it's better.
(that also means you have to re-register)

From what I know, the site crashed because of the sheer mass of people on the chat - that means it's not possible to fix. Simple as that.

This doesn't mean we can't get the chat back. The problem wasn't with the chat, so there's nothing to fix. Runouw/Suyo could simply put the chat back, but it would risk another site shutdown.
