Lightbulb Poll for IRC

Hello guys, I suggested that X10hosting set up an IRC server and channel for live support....Corey said that a poll is in order, So guys if you think an IRC channel is needed and will be helpful and will help the site grow, you can poll yes or if you think it is a waste of time and resources you can poll no....

For those of you who don't know what IRC is, take a look
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IRC

Corey, can you make this poll a sticky, otherwise I don't think we will have many replies, By the way, I have not set a deadline for this poll, Is it Okay?

Re: Poll for IRC

Until x10 sets up an official IRC server. I'm idling in the #x10 channel on irc.efnet.org.

irc://irc.efnet.org/x10

Re: Poll for IRC

I think it would take people away from the forums. Thus any help given is not avalible to others to read unless they are in the chat there and then. Also no advertising would be seen, unless it was text bassed.

dont know, but thats what I think. Anyhow who am I !

Very, Very Valid Point.
I still believe we should have the IRC, but now that DT mentioned it, I'm not sure why.

Re: Poll for IRC

I don't think it would distract / take away from the forums. Not all the people would rush to the IRC channel ( or IRC server if we had a full IRCd.
I have done pretty much all of IRC ( user, ChanOp and IRCop ) and still spend time on forums and websites. IRC is more a chatroom than a place to get detailed answers ( like many of users on here look for )

IRC could be good for quick responses, or to just chit-chat, which doesn't take up space on the forum.
