Hi Guys,

I seem to have lost my ability to get to #planetunreal in the UT browser <grin>

Is it going fine right now? I guess I re-installed UT, and now it just isn't working. I go into chat and then type in #planetunreal for the default channel (irc.gameslink.net is the server). I then hit connect and at the bottom of the chat window is says "connecting to irc.gameslink.net", then "connected"... then nothing at all happens :(

Is there something wrong with these names etc?? I have been there several times before, so I am not sure what the deal is!

Thanks heaps.

If you can't get in on irc.gameslink.net, try either q3arena.gameslink.net or utgames.gameslink.net.

I had this problems some weeks ago. It sometimes took minutes to join the channel.
A friend of mine also have this problem.
If You wait, I sure You get into the channel.

Thanks Zaccix my friend, but it didn't work. I wonder if it was just a bad install or something? Perhaps I'll try re-installing the game. Or maybe things'll improve once I get rid of my horrid DSL connection and go back to Cable on Monday ;)

Cheers

Ah - thanks heaps Swedix... I'll try that. I am almost postive that will work if I wait. It's all making sense now <grin> My DSL connection is ghastly, and takes ages to connect to things at times! That'll be it :)

Thanks again Swedix. Roll on monday and my cable connection back :)

Cheers Guys,

Swedix is right also sometimes it doesn't auto connect and I have to type in /join #planetunreal. The UT browser's a bitch to use for IRC. A lot of the irc commands never work for me on it. I go into a game comeback to the channel and I am disconnected from the server but I never get a message saying I'm disconnected. It took me a while to figure out why no one would ever respond.

Ok, thanks swedix et al. As zaccix and hal know I managed to get on last night.. it was just a matter of waiting a couple of minutes for it to connect properly.

Cheers
