Why, hello.
As most (though maybe not all) of you know, cRPG has its own IRC channel on quakenet. For those, that do not know what that is, just call it a chat channel.
You can come in for a random chat, though most of the time people come looking for help with something.
You can get in it either through here:
visitors can't see pics , please
register or
loginor, if you're real trendy, you might even have an IRC client:
That's all fine and dandy, but - what to do when you're inside and have a problem?
Don'ts:- Write "Hey, anyone here?"
- Write "Can anyone help me?"
- Write your issue, then leave after 5 minutes of no reply
- Start randomly spamming chadz, cmp and other devs with slaps
Do's:- Write down and explain your problem first.
- If the problem is sensitive, leave out the details, only explain them in a private query to an admin or someone, when approached
- Wait for at least 10+ minutes, preferably longer, it can take a bit for someone to check the channel and see a new message.
- Be polite
Follow this guide and you will spare the nerves of both yourself and the people, that are lurking in the channel, ready to help whoever
