Beginning of IRC

  2. Setup the client/ Run the client
  3. Click Options (Top Left of Client. A hammer Icon. 2nd Icon)
  4. It takes you to the “Connect” tab.
  5. In the field Nickname please create a name that has CAPITAL Letters“WILD_____”. For instance my name is WILDsharustar, shon’s is WILDshon.
  6. Now go under the connect tab and find “SERVERS”. Click it
  7. Click “ADD” (DO THIS ONLY IF YOU DON’T SEE A “FREE NODE FOLDER IN YELLOW)
  8. Description = “FreeNode” (This is considered the server that all the techies hangout on)
  9. IRC SERVER = “irc.freenode.net”
