now that PSU is shutting down for good, i would like to say that i will miss everyone and ill mis visintg this site every day, but i feel that there is a need. A need to stay intouch, so, me and a few other people decided to make our own IRC channel for PSU refugees, this was put up because we saw a need ofr a channel one the official PSU IRC is down. We are located on gamesurge, and the channel is #ps-universe. Hope to see alot of you there!

If martyr started an IRC server I would be all over that.

Instructions on Connecting:

First try to find the closest GameSurge server near you, list here

Then type /server yourserver

If you get an error reading

":Your username is invalid."
"Connect with your real name, in lowercase"

You'll have to unintsall mIRC and reinstall.

When you reinstall and you are prompt to make a real name, an e-mail address, a nickname, and a alt nicknaname put:

Real Name: nickname
E-mail: [email protected]
Username: nick
Alt Username: nick

And you should be able to connect

Then once you are in just type /join #ps-universe

For short:
irc.gamesurge.net
#ps-universe

If you have mIRC go to here

Ex-PSU staff will be given level 499 OP (highest level)

Whatever you do don't pick a ghey server, some servers really fucking suck, go down all the time, netsplits, etc.

as would I

I would to.

To run a IRC Server you need a dedicated server, you can however just join the channel on gamesurge which is the same thing and it doesn't cost anyone a buck.

Doop brought up netsplits. Since GameSurge had updated it's services netsplits have become super rare. I idle in multiple channels with over 300 people in them and I have not seen a netsplit in the past 3 or so weeks or even more.

Screw that. I'm not going to join some channel where 321 is op.

xmodum · 2004-12-30, 03:32 PM

no, seriously, I think that a channel with such moderation would end up with more drama than PSU IRC. Hence, I will gladly join an IRC channel who has someone with a bit of maturity as OP, but I'm not going to head into the disaster that is a (IMHO) trolling 13-year-old as OP.

Sorry 321, but I know how juvenile you can be and I'm not going to deal with it. If martyr or another responsible person creates an IRC channel I'll be happy to join.
