The PPUsa chatroom is open now!

pollution · May 24th, 2006, 01:41 PM

The brand new PPUsa chatroom (approved by Glenn, who will join the chatroom on occasion too) can be accessed by going to the address below. Fill in your nickname and connect. You will be asked about a security certificate, the applet is 100% secure so answer yes on that (Java has to be installed for the applet to work).

Chatroom address: http://www.progpowerusa.com/chat/

Scheduled weekly chat
The chatroom is open 24/7 and there will be people in all the time. But in addition to that there is a scheduled chat session every week on Sundays 5-8pm EST. So this is THE time to join if you want some chat action with fellow PP people 100% surely

The first weekly chat session will be this Sunday (May 28th) so hoping to see a lot of you around!

For those familiar with IRC, here's the info needed for joining:
Server - irc.umbranet.org
Port - 6667
Channel - #ppusa

Those who have mIRC/Chatzilla installed, click here to join: irc://www.umbranet.org/PPUsa

If you have problems connecting please shoot me a private message, e-mail me to aki(at)symphonyx.com or contact me on an instant messenger (don't reply on this thread with the problems).

Hoping to see many of you out there,
-Aki- (using the nick "pollution" on the chatroom)

booB · May 24th, 2006, 08:34 PM

it slays man, good job and thanks! I've already chatted with a couple of people I've never had the opportunity to chat with before.

FatesFan · May 24th, 2006, 08:41 PM

Sweet idea!

kittybeast · May 24th, 2006, 08:41 PM

Excellent call Pollution! Popped on for a few this evening, we'll be talking to ya'll later!

pollution · May 25th, 2006, 09:39 AM

The first day was definitely a success, we had over 40 people checking it out and there was over 3600 lines of action total! The 2nd day has started actively too.

Keep on coming in - and I'm sorry for the folks who already got addicted

AngraRULES · May 25th, 2006, 09:48 AM

And to the ones that are not aware, Aki didn't use an automatic counter. He counted every single line. Every single letter typed.

booB · May 25th, 2006, 10:05 AM

Aki's done over 3600 lines and is addicted???

BenMech · May 25th, 2006, 10:25 AM

cool channel Aki.
Thanks for setting it up

rottingflesh · May 25th, 2006, 12:23 PM

I am rather addicted myself in this slow time at work.

J-Dubya 777 · May 25th, 2006, 07:24 PM

Heh, not too surprising really - however the 2nd day was even more active than the first one, impressive! Mercenary fans might want to know that couple of the Mercenary guys came in for a while and will be doing that in the future too

BABS · May 26th, 2006, 08:26 AM

Cool, I'm gonna have to check it out.

StewiesSexyParties · May 26th, 2006, 07:57 PM

I went to the chat last night. Fun stuff

booB · May 27th, 2006, 01:54 AM

did you have one of your sexy parties?

pollution · May 28th, 2006, 05:21 AM

So it's finally Sunday - really hoping to see a bunch of people in the chatroom 5-8pm EST tonight for the weekly scheduled chat session. Quite a few have said they'll be there so it will be a lot of fun

AMBR · May 28th, 2006, 10:27 AM

5-8pm whose time? I'll probably stop by. Sounds like fun.
