DC said that it would be better if we used the spam lounge. But if we really can't stand it then he'd reconsider but he'd prefer it if we didn't. He also said that we could start an unofficial Pokemon-X IRC chatroom which I though was a good idea but it is a lot of work, time and effort

Since this is a chat thread, we should start a topic.
What is your opinion on Octopi?

This isn't a chat thread cbeizra, its a proposition for a chat thread. Read my last comment (the first comment on the second page) for more details.
EDIT: i love octopi and oddly enough the correct plural of octopus is octopuses or octopodes, its something to do with language (well they say that its probably so no-one gets their hopes up about having pie)

An IRC channel isn't hard to make at all, it'd just require everyone to download mIRC or any other IRC program.(I think Firefox has a plugin called Chatzilla that works too.) Find a server, make the channel, and hop on. It's much more ideal for chatting than a forum in any case.

I am familiar with the IRC. We use it on another forum I go to. Problem is, that no matter how easy it is to set up, I am incapable of doing so for the time being. I can give it a go though. The only thing is that it might be hard to have a sizable group. Given that most of these frequent posters appeared recently, we don't have many other frequent posters.
By the way, who would be channel ops? Channel operators are essentially moderators who can change topic titles and kick people off of chats.

Chaoman, i'm sure you could find some people that want to do it. the only problem is that we're not all in the same country so people would be on at different times.
What would a channel op have to do? If its not anything complicated I'd be glad to help out.

Chaoman, i'm sure you could find some people that want to do it. the only problem is that we're not all in the same country so people would be on at different times. That is my concern as well. Time zones an lack of active users, really. What would a channel op have to do? If its not anything complicated I'd be glad to help out.

I could be a channel op, I'm sure most of the other mods here would be interested too... I think an Irc would be awesome though! and I'm sure lots of people would join... I'll talk to Recon about it and see what he thinks.

Recon says he could make one... I personally think Recon would show up more in the IRC then he does here...
