Irc Clients

[Niteowl]

i used to use trillians built in one, quite nice in that it auto logs everything quite well. but it has it's limitations. now i'm using mIRC. it's ok. i used it so that it ties into my HLSW so i can tell the fogies where i'm playing when i connect.

any one use anything else and have reasons for recommending it?

HrdraIRC?

From what I understand, HydraIRC is leet because it allows you to connect to multiple servers.  It's also not nearly as much of a gawddamn eyesore as mIRC  ^^

search mIRC clients on google ;p, all of them have 90 percent usless features that you will never use, its just finding the one with features you do use

I just use normal mIRC. It works fine.

You can be on more then 1 server in mIRC to.

Hydra IRC has a much better format for multiple server-itude, as the room names aren't all at the top.  I use hydra and love it like my own child.

trillian crashes when i try to multi-server, but i <3 my trillian skin and dont really need other servers

oh yeah, trillian is skinnable

I hasten to tell you that it's IRC clients, not mIRC clients. IRC (short for Internet Relay Chat) is a chat protocol, mIRC is one particular IRC client used for connecting to IRC servers. I'm only correcting you because this way I know it'll be done without flaming. Never know otherwise, some people are overly passionate about this...

[Leaderz0rz]

yes, but what he is looking for is scripts for mIRC so by searching for mIRC CLients or scripts, he can find what he wants, like hydrairc etc

Been using mIRC for 2.5 years, and will never use anything else.

I use mIRC, mostly because its clean, and efficient, and it dosen't steal your attention away with pretty looks (Hydra, etc) Its convienient too. I hate how it looks but Im on IRC to talk, not stare at a skin.

[lolfighter]

I find that if you switch around the colors of mIRC, it's perfectly bearable. Using dark grey for main text, black for background now. Nice and neutral.

mIRC with the Invision script. It's all about useless features like random sound effects and stupid text tricks. Actually, it's a very powerful script if you're running a file server or suchlike, but I'm not, so it's just a toy. Also has nice white text on black background default color scheme.

I've used most of the ones out there, I used a highly customized mIRC (I rewrote all the channel display stuff in its scripting), I find HydraIRC works a lot more efficently them mIRC.. I still use a copy of mIRC for nullbot, just because HydraIRC doesnt have scripting now

[Lightning Blue]

Oh, an I am totally White Text on black!  ^^

[Satanic Monkey]

I also use trillian , still learning how to use Mirc <_<

[Leaderz0rz]

i use hot pink text on bright orange.

Yellow on white = win

Oh and excuse any typos, I can no longer focus on the letters on the keys I'm pressing, sorry.
