Knights of the IRC Channel have been formed with the sole shameless mission of promoting use of the Shartak IRC channel. Membership is open to all IRC users/contributors.

How to get on IRC

1. You'll need a client, if you don't already have one. Windows users can use X-Chat (http://www.silverex.org/download/). NB. Use this link and not the official xchat website as otherwise you will only get a free trial version.
2. After you install and launch it, you'll see a window labeled "Server List".
3. Set the nick name(s) you want to be seen as. Then, click the "Add" button. Type in "Shartak", then click edit.
4. Replace "newserver/6667" with "irc.efnet.org".
5. Click the "Connect to this network at startup" check box.
6. Enter "#Shartak" in the "Channels to join" blank.
7. Then click "Close" and double click on the "Shartak" network you just added.

Events

5th October (or thereabouts)

The challenge was to take Marvin's avatar, modify it in some way, and then use it as your own avatar on the official forum. It didn't take long for it to be noticed - http://forum.shartak.com/index.php?topic=778.0

An image of all avatars used can be found here: [1]

Topics

Any of the channel operators can change the topic, and frequently someone makes a comment that is either amusing or can be deemed dubious when taken completely out of context. Here are some of the more memorable.
