Namine's Cafe IRC Channel


> To connect simply type in your MAL nickname and click start.
> Please skim through this info to get a brief understanding of how it works.
Note: Do not use excessively long and/or descriptive nicknames just for the kicks. The best is to stick to your mal nickname really.

You will proceed to the KiwiIRC web client, which is a limited web-hosted chat program.
We highly recommend getting a proper client for your computer/device, but it is NOT necessary.

Information below


Internet Relay Chat (IRC) is a system that facilitates transfer of messages in the form of text. The chat process works on a client/server model of networking. IRC clients are computer programs that a user can install on their system. These clients are able to communicate with chat servers to transfer messages to other clients. It is mainly designed for group communication in discussion forums, called channels, but also allows one-to-one communication via private message as well as chat and data transfer, including file sharing. - wikipedia
More help available at http://www.irchelp.org/

We have set up a channel on the Rizon network, which is the same that MAL use for their channel.
The server is: irc.rizon.net
The channels are:
  • #naminescafe
  • #naminescafe18+
  • #naminesstaff


Obviously the 18+ and staff channels require special access.
To get access to the 18+ channel simply message Lommelun, NoZephy or ask in the 18+ thread and the password will be sent to you.
DO NOT SHARE THIS PASSWORD
You will also need to have a registered nickname to enter the 18+ chat. (not at the moment)

All club staff will be given half operator status at the very minimum.


Why you should, and how to register your nickname


Why would you need to register your nick?
To put it simply - you lock your nickname with a password so only you can use it. It's main use is to prevent nickname theft or impersonation.
Registering a nick also gives you some more access, and you will need it to join the 18+ channel.

To register a nick you need to interact with NickServ.
NickServ is a server service that acts like the keeper of nicknames.
/msg NickServ HELP
or
/msg NickServ HELP REGISTER

Note: Some users have reported that /msg does not work. Please try /q or /query instead
Will give you some more information about NickServ and nickname registration.

To register you need to private message NickServ. The command to register is
/msg NickServ REGISTER PASSWORD EMAIL

It should look like this /msg NickServ register passw0rd2014 namines@cafe.com

When you have done so, you will recieve an email from the Rizon services stating that you will need to confirm with NickServ to complete the registration.
Simply copy and paste the confirmation code command and press enter. Should look something like this: /msg NickServ confirm 3AE2eGRvp


Club Rules

  1. Be nice to one another.
  2. Greet everyone! Nobody should be ignored :)
  3. Don't pick fights!
  4. Don't post inappropriate comments or links.
    Note: If you are going to link to an NSFW* site please do so in a PM.
    If the topic is nsfw please use the appointed 18+ thread
  5. Respect others, please debate in a civil manner.


Chat Rules
[list]
[*]Never spoil anything. Use spoiler coloring if you post spoilers, and tag these with the show it is for.
[*]Do not flood the chat - applies to repeatedly spamming messages, emoticons or similar.
[*]Do not attempt to impersonate staff, or any other member.
[*]No malicious links. For example screamers.
[*]Do not harass other members of the group, you will be warned. Repeated harassment will get you banned instantly.
[*]Do not repeatedly CTCP ping/version/time to other members without their consent.

> Breaking the aforementioned rules may result in a ban from the chat, and in worst case the club.
*NSFW = Not Safe For Work - Sexual, violent or other content not appropriate in the workplace or for children.


Clients
Clients are the software you use to chat. There are many variants, and many of you are probably most familiar with the web-clients such as Kiwi IRC or the one MAL use on their IRC page.
Below you will find information about different clients on different systems. We have tried outlining some of the differences, but it's mostly about what you feel is best for you.

Mac:

Windows:

  • HexChat - http://hexchat.github.io/ Recommended
    Clean interface, first setup can be slightly confusing, has limited options but is very easy to configure highlighting etc.
  • AdiIRC - http://www.adiirc.com/
    Complex interface, more options, harder to setup with more rewards, comes with useful themes to get you started, can stack windows inside the main client window (extremely useful for multi channel chatting)
  • mIRC (Only free for 30 days) - http://www.mirc.co.uk/
  • Quassel IRC - http://quassel-irc.org/

Linux:
(Can be installed from your Software repo)

  • XChat
  • Irssi
  • Konversation

Browser Plugins:
Firefox:


Google Chrome:
[list][*]CIRC
[*]Mibbit
[*]Kiwi IRC


Common/Useful Commands.


Commands should be entered EXACTLY as you see them, not doing so will result in syntax errors.
Obviously you should replace the example text with your own.

/join
/join <#channel> <keyword|password>

Example: /join #naminescafe18+ fak3passw0rd
This command will simply join the channel which you typed in.
If channel mode is set to +k then you need a password.


/leave or /part
/leave
/part

Typing this command will leave the current channel.
e.g: I'm connected to both #namineschat and #namineschat18+. I only want to leave #namineschat18+ so I type /leave in the corresponding chat, the other chat will remain open.

/away
/away <none|away message>

Example(s): /away I am currently away, please try again later sets your status to away with the specified message.
Conversely; /away removes any current set message and sets your status as 'back'.

/whois
/whois

/whois NoZephy gives the following results: LINK
This command will give you a quick run down on a client, including their real name (if they entered one), the channels they are connected too,
if they are away and what their message is, if they have been identified by NickServ and their flags (privileges) for the current channel. Example below.

/nick
/nick

Example: /nick NoZephy|AFK
Using this command will change your nickname. It's a common and simple mistake to change your nickname to NoZephy|AFK while you are away. You shouldn't really do this as people can steal your actual nickname.
I want to re-iterate at this point that people who are trying to steal/impersonate ANY nickname on the chat will be dealt with. Within the #naminescafe and #naminescafe18+, changing nicknames to represent you being AFK
is ALLOWED, however just be weary if you plan to chat on other IRC channels as many will kick and actually ban people for doing this.[/i]

/msg
/msg <nickname|#channel>

Example: /msg Lommelun Hi there, how is it going?
This command is used to message other users or channels. Depending on your client these will be shown differently.

Bot Commands


Namine's cafe has several bots that operate inside the IRC channel, below are a few commands that you may find useful to use.

Nee-Chan
Nee-chan was made by [url=http://myanimelist.net/profile/kingorgg]Kingorgg[/url] - for fun. However he is trying to make her useful for users in the chat. So far her commands are limited, but if users would like to submit suggestions then he can look at implementing them.

Alright, so we have set up our own channel. Skype, IRC, and more. There's never too many.

Would you two mind sharing the password to access the #naminesstaff to all Staff members already? After all, unlike all the 18+ members in the club, we are limited, and all the members with the Admin club access are already listed on the club's index page, so I don't see an issue in letting them all know the password right away, w/o the necessity of an extra request.

Regardless, it's really nice to have the channel set up. Good work over there. :)

I don't see any other way of sending it to the Staff only. I thought that sending it via the PM system went without saying. Regardless, to keep it 100% assured, do keep to the note - sending the password to the Staff members via the PM system, and that system only.

Takes a while as there's a 30s cooldown between messages.

Hi 2Mfan,
Double check that you are connected to the rizon network (irc.rizon.net) (if you clicked the link to the web IRC you are, don't worry)

Some clients use /query instead of /msg. Try this :)
Either way; PM me there if it doesn't work.
/msg OR /query Lommelun message to contact me there.

Might be your internet connection then, but seeing as you can post here it should be fine..
Try these pages https://qchat.rizon.net/ and https://kiwiirc.com/client/irc.rizon.net/#naminescafe
May also be better to try a software client, we listed some in the original post.

Though just mentioning you don't have to register. It is preferred however, but seeing as you might just have connection issues it won't help that either I suppose..

Being perfectly honest, you only have to register if you would one day want to hold a higher access/power rank than you do now. ;)

That includes half-cop and op, as well as admin. To be a creator/owner, you would long have to register and learn the drill before setting up something yourself. I'm speaking about various channels in general as I say that, not being specific about Namine's and its ranking system, since it's not directly under my wing. But these peeps are very nice, so yeah, registering in any case whatsoever (if possible) is always a plus.

I recently updated my post which may help you. Pick a server that is close to you and see if the problem still persists.

If you're struggling for whatever reason, look at this image for help. :)
