On a related note, Xchat now officially sucks. I loved it back in the tigerbolt days, but now you have to pay $20 for it. I also hate the new interface. :(

Uh, this xchat? Pay? It's OSS as near as I can tell. I don't mind the "new" interface, what specifically bothers you about it? You could always get the old version.

Is this a firewall related issue? Some insight would be great.

You may use X-Chat for Windows for free for 30 days. If, after this time, you would like to continue using the product, you are required to register. Registration is a one time fee of $20 USD (United States Dollars) which can be paid using the PayPal service below.
Q. Why isn't the Windows version free?
A. Building X-Chat for Windows is a difficult process, it requires quite some skill and expertise to accomplish. It takes time, and is by no means automated.

Re: FIRST Chat!

Clark, DJ, Ive run into that error before...the time I had it either the server network was down, or I was behind a firewall with a particular port blocked. I dont know if this will help you or not though.

You'd have to be quite serious about your preference to go to that length :yikes:

Re: FIRST Chat!

Is the java chat (and the nonnebots site) broken? It says I'm forbidden.

Re: FIRST Chat!

Yes, the java applet is broken for now. Apparently the host for the Nonnebots site had an issue with the server the site is hosted on. They're working on getting everything straightened out. Not sure when it will be back up, but if it's not up by tomorrow, I'll set up the applet on another server.
