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: (the
first two links will take you directly to #Woodcarverchat)
http://www.starlink-irc.org/java/java_williamslake.html?chan=#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..
*******
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)

See you there!
E-mail me off the list for additional information and instructions.
