TriforceTour

1. Don't use foul language. We have moderators in there almost all the time and we'll keep track of everyone that visists the room, so don't use any language that you wouldn't want a 10 year old to hear.
2. Respect the moderators. If you think they're abusing their power, talk to TheMasterSwordsman or another moderator in the room. In this chatroom, we call them channel operators, or just operators. On the chat program we have on TriforceTour, look for users with %, @, &, or ~ next to their username on the right pane of the program.
3. If there's a bot in the room (a bot is a program that connects to the chat and does automated things on-demand), then don't abuse it.
4. Don't use shorthand. It's just major abuse of the english language and never pays off. The operators don't particularly like it either.
5. Have fun! If you're not having fun at all, just tell an operator why you're not enjoying yourself and we'll try to fix that.

Welcome to the Chat Room! This is where you can hold live discussions with other Zelda fans whenever you want. If you wish to start chatting right away, enter your nickname here.

Nickname

* Do not enter your nickname as Link, Zelda, or Ganon. Those nicknames are registered and protected.

*** BY CLICKING THIS BUTTON, YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTOOD THE RULES ABOVE! ***

You can change your nickname using the command:

/nick new_nickname
Please note that spaces cannot be used in nicknames on IRC. If you get a notice from NickServ that the nickname you are using is registered and protected, that means someone else owns the nickname, and therefore you cannot take control of it unless you identify.


There is a service on the chat network named "NickServ" that can help you with your nickname. To see a list of commands it has, type the following into the input bar where you use to chat.

/msg NickServ help

To register your nickname if it is not taken, use the command:

/msg NickServ register password e-mail
Replace password with a password that you can remember so you'll be able to tell NickServ that you own the nickname next time you join chat. Replace e-mail with your e-mail address. (This is required in case you forget your password.)


If you've already registered your nickname and you need to identify to is, you can you the command:

/msg NickServ identify password
Replace password with the password you registered the nickname with. This authenticates you so that you are in control of the nickname. Remember, if you have registered your nickname, others cannot take control of it.


If someone is using your nickname, you can boot them off using the command:

/msg NickServ ghost nickname password
Replace nickname with your nickname, and password with the nickname's password and that will disconnect the user from the network, allowing you to change your nick to your nickname.
