This article is a help page for the IRC client at Pikmin:Chatroom.
In order to use the chatroom on Pikmin:Chatroom, your computer requires Java. If you cannot use that client for whatever reason, you can use any other IRC client to connect to the Pikipedia chatroom. The sever name is irc2.darkmyst.org and the channel is #pikipedia.
Some customizations are availible:
- Text colors. Left-click on a color on the right to make it your text color, right-click on another color to make it your background color.
- Smilies. These are still in development. Ones that are availible will be listed below.
- Private chatting. Double-click on a user's name in the right-hand side to talk to him or her alone. It will appear in a separate tab on the bottom row.
Here are a few of the many commands you can use in the chat:
- /j #[roomname] – open another tab on the top row to show another room.
- /nick [nickname] – another way of changing your name
- /query [username] – a fancy way of opening a private-message tab.
- /me [blah blah] – a fancy way of referring to yourself (/me goes away results in [Username] goes away in a purple-colored font)
- /msg NickServ OR /ns +
- REGISTER [password] [email] – how to make sure no one can impersonate you. Everytime you change your nick, you must identify yourself ↑
- identify [password] – if you registered your name, this is how you enter your password
- SET password [new password] – if you want to change your password, this is how you do it. You must identify yourself first.
- KILL [nickname] [password] – if you fail to enter your name within the time limit, this is what you do to get your name back.
- DROP [password] – if you want to unregister your nick, this is how you drop it. Be warned, you will lose any channel you own, and auto-opping of any chanel.
- /clear – delete all text from the chat window.
Please also regard the following:
- No flaming, cursing or being inappropriate in any type of way.
- It is advisable to use your username as a nickname.
- No spam in any such way.
- If a rule is not followed, a kick will be issued.
Operators may be present to kick or ban unruly users. These will generally be sysops.
