SwiftIRC Server Issues
by [ADMIN] Mr J 18/3/2013, 6:32 pm
SwiftIRC servers are experiencing temporary technical difficulties due to a DDoS attack they got yesterday and should be fixed in the next few hours.
You can't join IRC like you normally would using the buttons on the banner, but you can still join using Swiftkit or by following the instructions below, which were written by an IRC admin.
For browsers other than Chrome:
- Spoiler:
- Using the IRC client:
1.
Visit http://ircclient.onlinetoolkit.org/
2.
Click "Run this time" or "Always run on this site".
3.
You'll receive a Java prompt that looks a little like this, read the text and click the appropriate option, either "Yes" or "No". If you happen to select the wrong one and the client is blocked, restarting your browser should do the trick.
4.
Type the following into the chat window:- Code:
/server irc.swiftirc.net
5.
You'll be automatically joined to channel #webuser and with a nickname "Webuser". You'll need to type:- Code:
/nick yournickname
6.
Then you'll type:- Code:
/join #*
For Chrome users:
- Spoiler:
- For those interested in a plugin for Google Chrome
1.
Visit https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/circ/bebigdkelppomhhjaaianniiifjbgocn?utm_source=chrome-ntp-launcher
2.
Select "Add to Chrome"
3.
Select "Add"
4.
Chrome should now open a new tab displaying your Chrome Apps.
5.
Click CIRC on your Apps Page and the application will launch.
6.
Input this information:- Code:
/nick YourNick
/server irc.swiftirc.net
/join #channel
Voila! You're now using a neat Chrome application for IRC. It will remember your details each time you launch it, more information can be found on their website!
Or go to swiftkit.net, download and install the client, then open it and go to Utilities > IRC Client.

Thanks - Chrome does not seem to work for me but I'll just wait until the issues are fixed.

(bump, in case anyone else needs)
Having some trouble again, mibbit won't connect. CIRC works fine though.
EDIT: Fine again.
