[Woodcarver] Sunday Woodcarver Chat

[Marcia Berkall]

Note:  There have been some server problems on starlink-irc.  If the links 
below don't work for you, please let me know.

Join in on the fun!!!
For informative and fun REAL TIME conversations with a number of the
carvers on "The List", come to the Woodcarver chats.  We don't always
talk about carving, but if anyone has a question or comment, we can get
serious in a hurry.  Get to know the people behind the names.  And bring
you carving questions with you!!!

We meet on Wednesday nights at 9:30 PM Eastern and on Sundays at 4:30
PM Eastern.

If you are NOT using an IRC chat program, I think you will like these 
simplified instructions!!!  Just click on one of these links: they will 
take you directly to #Woodcarverchat)

They will take a LONG time to load!!!!!!!  Don't give up.  When it finally 
does load, you will be asked to type in a nickname.....then click connect, 
and wait a little bit longer. The chat screen will open....You'll see a 
large window with lots of text, and just under it a narrow space...put the 
cursor in that narrow space.
  Type     /join #Woodcarverchat      ( you need the /, the #  and 
uppercase W) then hit the  "enter" key....and you will be in the right place.

If you are using an mIRC chat program:
   1. Log onto your ISP.
   2. Open mIRC. You should see a box "mIRC Options". If you don't then 
click on View then on "Options"  Fill in the information there...you do NOT 
have to put in your real name or email address.  For security purposes, 
make them up.  Do put in the nickname you want and an alternative.
   4. Click on the button with the sunburst icon, just to the right of the 
button that says, "Connect to Server".  Where it says "IRC Network", scroll 
down until you see "Starlink-IRC" and highlight that so it shows in the 
window.  There is also a Starlink network, so make sure that the one you 
select has the "IRC" after it. Now click on the arrow next to the IRC 
server window.  That will list a number of Starlink-IRC servers....select 
one of them. The Starlink-IRC random server will automatically pick one of 
the servers for you, so you can use that one.  With one of the Starlink-IRC 
servers in the window, click on
"Connect to Server"

If the Starlink Random Server is not in your mirc program you can add it:
Click the "add" button.
Where it says "Description" type "Starlink Random Server"
Where it says "IRC Server" type IRC.STARLINK-IRC.ORG
Port should be 6664,6665,6666,6667,6668,6669   (all of those with no spaces 
between them)
and "Group" is Starlink-IRC
   5. Once connected, you'll see lots of scrolling text.  When that stops, 
type
        /join #Woodcarverchat in the window at the bottom and hit your 
"enter" key.
     (you need the / and #, and Woodcarverchat must be spelled exactly right)
