Who knows...maybe I could play a game or two.../me thinks...89-90 was last time I played so I'm rusty for sure....anyways drop by irc and chat  </STRONG>

*sigh* If this AD&D In Chat Rooms thing does end up being done in mIRC, then ya'll will just have to count me out of it.
Not only do I just dislike mIRC itself, but it also messes up my comp big time.

<STRONG>BTW..I read back and see that Fogwraith has an irc script for dice rollin using a bot...THAT MAKES IT ALL THE MORE PERFECT...if he can't be found I know it could be worked out fairly easily</STRONG>

From what I've seen of mIRC, AIM is a heckuva lot simpler so the dice rolling is most likely simpler and easier to use...

<STRONG>.....the possiblities with irc are endless here...peeps from all round the world playing in games, multiple rooms with multiple campains, locked games, clan and guild settings and compitions...on and on...The rooms are set up with a personal host for each room and the owner (DM) would have total control of the room. This will limit spam and bring order to the game in a chaotic situation..and on and on. I'm totally serious bout helping with irc and this could really breath life back into AD&D for many of us...</STRONG>

It's really easy to deal with 'uninvited guests' in an AIM chat. Everyone puts him on ignore. Uninvited guests are rare, though.
Me and some friends do freestyle RPGs via AIM all the time. In fact, we were gonna play AD&D via AIM but we just haven't gotten around to it yet.
Anyway, if ya'll choose to do this on AIM, count me in; but, like I said, if ya'll choose to do this on mIRC, count me out.
