Soul Arena IRC Channel

As you may know already, Soul-Arena has opened up its own official IRC chat channel. This will give our members the opportunity to talk freely to eachother. We recommend everybody uses the exact same username as he/she has on his/her Soul-Arena account.

To connect to our IRC-channel you'll need the following information:

Server: irc.rizon.net
Channel: #soul-arena
Link: If you already have an IRC-Client installed, just click here to connect to the channel.

Internet Relay Chat (IRC) is one of the most popular and most interactive services on the Internet. It's just like msn or yahoo chatrooms. Generally, the user (such as you) runs a program (called a "client") to connect to a server on one of the IRC nets. The server relays information to and from other servers on the same net. The recommended clients is mIRC.

If you want to join our IRC-channel, just follow the tutorial underneath. Everything is explained step by step.

• Go to http://www.mirc.com/get.html and download the latest mIRC version. The download location really doesn't matter since all the files are same. But still try to download it from the location nearest to you.
• Install the application.
• When you run mIRC for the first time, it asks you for your full name, e-mail address, your nickname and alternative. Fill in all these things. Please try to use your soul-arena game name so that everyone can tell who you are.
• Once you are done filling in this information, it's time to select a server. Our channel (#soul-arena) is located on the Rizon server. So, from the option menu select "servers", and hit "Add". Fill in the following data, and hit the ok-button. Description: Rizon - IRC Server: irc.rizon.net - Port(s): 6667
• In the dropbox called IRC Server you will now see Rizon as the selected server. Click "connect to server".
• Now you are connected to the server. But you are not connected to the channel yet. Go to the very bottom and type /join #soul-arena exactly as it's written here.
• If you did everything right you should now be connected to the Soul-Arena IRC Channel.

While in a channel, follow the lead of the channel ops there. If you antagonize them, you may be "kicked" out off the channel forcibly and possibly "banned" from returning. Please also do note that how things handled in the IRC channel is very different from the forum.

No spamming and/or flooding and/or repeating
Spamming, flooding, or repeating the same thing isnt allowed. Flooding in IRC terms is typing text really fast. Human impossible fast that is, Repeating is saying the same thing over and over again.

No Flaming
We do not tolerate any kind of flaming, flaming anyone will result in an instant kick or ban. Cussing is allowed however as long as its not excessive.

No Advertising (That means no other channels and/or websites).
Absoultely no form of advertisement is allowed, this includes other channels/websites or advertising your clan to recruit people. Please keep the clan recruiting in the forum section made for it.

English Language Only
This may seem unfair, but unfortunately its the only language we are allowing in the channel. There are reasons for this, the channel rules cant be enforced if we don't know the language, and it will be a mess if everyone talks in a different language.

No Caps Abuse
Abusing caps and typing sentences like "OMG I JUST MADE THE BEST CLAN EVER TYPE 15264156 TO JOIN MY CLAN NOW" can get you banned automatically.

No Roleplaying (That means no /me usage).
Due to people abusing the /me command and the channel being filled with it. This rule was made to stop it as its just annoying and not the purpose of chat. If you really do want to role play go to #na-roleplay

No OP/Mod begging
We wont op you no matter how much you ask, if there is a need for a new op, we will talk to the person ourselves and make him one.

No racial slurs
Self-explanatory.

No inappropriate nicknames
Inappropriate nick names will get you kicked/banned from the channel.

Don't tell operators when to kick/ban and/or enforce rules!
We as mods will always ban when we feel a rule is broken. So don't tell us who to ban.

Sometimes your firewall blocks the IRC from connecting to the server. If that happnes try disabling your firewall and re-connecting again. If it works than try unblocking IRC. For example if you are using zonealarm firewall go to IM Sceurity->settings->Advanced-> Uncheck block IRC.
