Guest PainoMan Posted September 8, 2000 Why is it that on the main page of Doomworld does it advertise #doomworld but everybody is actually in #doomroom? What kind of loyalty is that? The last time I was at #doomworld, the only person there was dEstROYer (or however he capitalizes his nick!). He told me to go to #doomroom and lo and behold, there was Linguini and everybody else! 0 Share this post Link to post
Guest Duke Nukem Posted September 8, 2000 #doomworld is me and my friends room on irc devoted to this site. Not! It is called #doomworld because we like doom. DALNet Doomworld is the one on the page 0 Share this post Link to post
Linguica Posted September 8, 2000 Loyalty to who? Doomworld? People can chat wherever they want, I can't tell them what to do. #doomroom has been around for quite a while on several different networks and so more people are bound to go there just because of that. 0 Share this post Link to post

DALNet Doomworld is the one on the page ?? #doomworld as 'advertised' (linked) on doomworld.com is on telefragged's own IRC server, not dalnet. 0 Share this post Link to post
Guest PainoMan Posted September 8, 2000 Actually, these answers are about what I expected. I thought that #doomworld link might be a different thing from the #doomworld on EFnet, but I figgered I'd post anyway. DALnet? eeeewwwwwww! 0 Share this post Link to post

I agree Linguica, but I thought you folks would have at least been in the chan. Anyway, it appears I was mistaken and the #doomworld chan on EFnet and the link that appears on the main page are not the same thing. Sorry fer buggin' ya. 0 Share this post Link to post

mewse Posted September 10, 2000 Uhhm, just to set the record straight (I notice a lot of replies already).. Doomworld.com advertises #doomworld on the Telefragged IRC network. There is a #doomworld on efnet which is unaffiliated with doomworld (they seem to exist solely to cause confusion). #doomroom on efnet is, dare i say, the most active doom channel on all of irc, and it used to be advertised on doomworld but this led to problems as people started to think that #doomroom was run by doomworld, or endorsed by doomworld, or something to that effect. So now doomworld points towards it's own channel, #doomworld on the Telefragged network. Hope this helps. -mewse 0 Share this post Link to post
