Despite the pinned nature of this topic, this chatroom is unaffiliated with the main site, the rules here do not apply there and visa versa.
TRAViS created an awesome program to connect to the chatroom for you! Head over here and download it!
To connect to the chat in a webpage, go to www.gamesurge.net/chat, then type /j #nightsintodreams into the message box. And voila! Instant chat!
---------------------------------
-Rules-
---------------------------------
1. The chatroom is NOT a gossip house, kids.
2. While the room isn't connected to the boards, it cannot be used to make fun of or insult members here.
3. The chatroom is not serious buisness. Sarcasm is rampant, we play around a lot, so take it all with a grain of salt.
4. The Ops of iRC and mods of the board are COMPLETELY separate. If you're banned from iRC, don't go whining to them.
5. All decisions are usually final. We don't exactly like having to be mean, so play nice, yes?
These rules are subject to change, but for the most part, just use common sense and we'll all get on right and dandy~
If you have any problems PM or email any of the Chat Ops.
Ops: Roam, Sairus, Pell and Purgatory

-Advanced Methods For Connecting To The Room-
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HydraIRC
HyrdaIRC is a completely free program that requires no registration and has a very simple user interface.
Click here
to download the installer for the program.
1. If this is your first time running Hydra you will be asked if you want to create an Identity, select yes. If you have already set one up, skip to section 3
2. A window should appear with a big white box and a bunch of buttons at the bottom. Click 'New'.
Fill in all the details:
Identity Description is just a description of the account you're making.
Real Name is not important, but you have to put something (anything) in.
Username is what you want yourself to be called in the room
Nick is also what you want to be called. Fill this in with your chosen name, then click 'Add', just beside it.
The last two are unimportant.
Once all that is filled in, click OK.
That should close that window. Click the profile you just created, then click 'Set as Default'. Finally, press 'OK'
3. Up on the top left of the program there should be three icons that look like plugs. Click the middle one.
4. A new window should pop up. About halfway down this window there should be a box that says 'URI' beside it. Delete whatever is in the box and type in irc.gamesurge.net, then click 'OK' at the bottom of the window.
5. After a few seconds writing should start scrolling up the chat window and another window called channel list will appear. Close this.
In the chat window, type "/j #nightsintodreams" (without the quotation marks), then hit the Enter key. And hoorah! You should hopefully be in the chatroom!
6. As a final step, once you have connected to the room, click on 'Favourites' up on the bar at the top of Hyrda. Then click 'Add to Favourites'. In the window that appears, call the room 'NiGHTS into Dreams' or something, then click 'OK'.
Now, whenever you want to join the room, simply start up Hydra, then click 'Favourites' and click 'NiGHTS into Dreams' (or whatever you called it), then do step 5. See you soon!
mIRC
The address of the chat server itself is irc.gamesurge.net1) Download an mIRC and install it... it's tiny.
2) When you open it, a box should appear with Full Name, Email Address, Nickname and Alternate Nickname.
Fill these in with whatever you want. Only the Nickname one is important.
On the left, there should be a white box with a long list of tabs. Click on 'Connect' to open it (if it's not already
open) and then click on 'Channels'
3) Search through the list that appears and find the GameSurge folder. Open that, then go to Random Server.
Finally click 'OK'
4) The grey box should disappear. You should now see a row of pictures running across the length of the
program up at the top somewhere (this list sometimes appears on the side of the window in a column), click the Lightening Bolt one.
5) Writing should start scrolling up the window and it will make some beeping noises.
Type "/j #nightsintodreams" into the message box (but without the "") and press enter.
6) Hoorah! You should hopefully be in the chatroom!
Once you have used mIRC once you will only have to press 'Connect' on the grey box that appears when you start the program next time, then follow steps 5) and 6) to get into the room.
If you have any problems PM me~ Hope to see you soon!
