Chat Rooms

[whiterose]

Sorry if this question has been asked before, but does anyone know of any Chatrooms where the discussion include Astral Projection, OBE's etc.

Thanks in advance

[Grigori]

Sorry no but I'd be happy to provide a chatroom for astralpulse if people would like one

[whiterose]

Well I'd certainly be a regular, although I can't believe there isn't already one somewhere out there.  I have looked but as I'm not the best at navigating the web, I've gone up a few dead ends.

[Grigori]

They are great when people can agree on a time to meet but the usual problem is timing 

[whiterose]

There must be enough people interested in these subjects so that you wouldn't have to arrange times etc..  I don't know the logistics of operating a 24/7 chatroom but like anywhere else, there would be times when there are loads of people about and popping in and out, and also quieter times.  Both can be good.  To call in and find just 2 or 3 people who maybe you never met before would be as much fun as trying to follow all the different conversations that you'd get with a busy room.

I see that there is a registered channel named #astralpulse on irc.freenode.net

registered by a nick dan|el 2 years ago and abbandoned :/

We can meet there, and get the channel back

irc.freenode.net channel #astralpulse

Waiting you there

for those not familiar with irc, you can go to the following link
http://java.freenode.net//index.php?channel=astralpulse

All I seem to get is the message - Unable to cennect : null

Not vert technology minded i'm afraid.

[souledge]

You could have a problem with java, or someone is blocking your irc connections.

Try using and irc client like xchat, mirc etc

Or nevermind, now I know why this channel was abandoned 2 years ago

I'll try to make a tutorial for the users on windows who would like to use an irc client instead of the web interface, but give me the time to find a machine with windows

[whiterose]

Not sure what that means, but sounds promising.  Conversations would be so much easier with a chat room.

Using xchat:

1) Downloading
You can go to the following link: http://www.xchat.org/
and then click on the "Download XChat" link

OR

you can download xchat directly from here:
http://www.xchat.org/files/binary/win32/xchat-2.8.3e.exe

2) Installing
After you finished downloading you just start the program (installer) you download.
Click "next", leave the components as default - "Next", "Next" again and then click on "Install".
After that click Next one more time, leave the "Run XChat" checkbox marked and click "finish"

3) Configuring
You'll get a dialog like this one:

Insert your nick, the second nick (usually the first nick + _ (underslash)), the username and the real name (or just write something)
From the network List, select freenode and then click Connect

4) Joining the channel
After connecting you'll get a dialog like this one:

Select the second option ( Join this channel) and write #astralpulse, then click OK

That's it

Those who prefere the web interface and don't have problem with it can still go to: http://java.freenode.net//index.php?channel=astralpulse

it would be nice if more of ppl would come ... me and Soul aka v-v on the irc are almost all the time there ... and if we don't respond that is because we are AFK ... so patience hope to see you more there we had lots of interesting conversation in just 2 days so seems promising some tips (for java users)
type:
/nick YOURNICK
to change your nick to something else if ppl will come then it would be confusing to talk to loads of "Traveler's"
i would like to see some masters to show us newbs the way 

this is my first post so Hello and hope that i will find interesting things here (and on the irc    )

[whiterose]

So why can't I use the web interface, or have you already explained that?

[souledge]

I don't know why you can't use the web interface, probably a problem with java, but I don't know
Why don't you download xchat and follow the tutorial in the previous post and try to connect using xchat?

[whiterose]

Tried to download Xchat but am getting the message - connection failed. error: An established connection was aborted by the software in your host machine.

I downloaded it and I connected without a problem. If an antivirus/antispyware program comes up asking if you want this program to connect to the internet click allow always. I just downloaded it and I was expecting more than two other people to be on.
