The RocketTheme team, our dedicated moderators, and some of our good RT friends have been hanging out on IRC as a little place to chat and shoot the breeze. I would like to invite anyone to join us there. We are currently using the slashdot IRC service:
www.slashnet.org/servers/
Please join us on #rockettheme.
To find out more information about IRC, available clients, etc - please read the wikipedia page:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Relay_Chat
IMPORTANT: This is not a support channel it's a general chit-chat - water cooler type channel. Any support questions will be referred to the forum.

If you have never used IRC before, it may be daunting and difficult to get it working. An easy option is to use Trillian or xchat and here are a simple set of instructions on how to get on
Xchat & IRC
There are many IRC clients, one is xchat, download from www.xchat.org/
Open the program and fill out your details into the fields on the popup. Select SlashNET from the list of servers.
Click Connect.
A popup should then appear, labelled "Connections to SlashNET Complete".
Select the Join a Channel option and type #rockettheme
Trillian & IRC .
You can download Trillian at www.ceruleanstudios.com/
Once you have installed Trillian, open the program and a little "console window" should appear. Select Trillian > Trillian Preferences > [flash=200,200]http://Plugins[/flash]. Activate the IRC plugin with the tick box next to it
Go to Identities & Connections > Click Add New Connection > IRC >
Type into the fields
#rockettheme
irc.slashnet.org
*Your Nickname*
*Your Username*
*Your User Info*
-> Connect
Go back to the Trillian console screen (may need to click on the icon in the bottom right taskbar of your monitor)
Select the small glass, icon button underneath your avatar > Join a Channel > #rockettheme
A window should then popup which is the IRC Channel - Last Edit: 17 years 3 months ago by James Spencer.
