rebel:
I'm sure EFNet or IRC Net would have something. I don't want to come across negative to the idea but they are a little messy, server, clients etc and if there's too many people on simultaneously, it's hard to keep track of conversation .... it'd be easier to either set a chat box right here and maintain traffic or register an ICQ address and load that client together with this forum. But again it's another overhead on your PC and I don't think the demand is there from our members anyway.

Brutus:
From what little I've had to do with IRC, it's very unreliable to use.

Adam:
I fist used it in 1996 and it all depends on the network/server your on, its vastly improved since then, networks like EFnet and Undernet are now quite accesible.

It's not the most user friendly of things in 2003 but it saves having to write a chat script for the website that there may not be a need for. As Rebel said, there's prolly no demand.
