Something you need to know about using mIRC to access chat. The way the chat servers are set up, if you do not have a registered nick name in chat and there isn't a channel operator (ChatOp) in the channel, you will not be able to enter the chatroom. This does not apply to anyone using the java client, through java anyone can enter the chat room regardless of whether or not a chatop is present.

Of course, the easiest thing to do in any case is to register your nickname in chat.

Dra, for some reason, my Mirc says my nick is not registered (although it WAS) and I got in.

I can't get into chat right now. I've always been java as far as I know - the Board appears but there's no names on the side and no posts. Anyone?

All the chat page is showing is "*** 0". I can post, but there's nothing else there.

Goddess, that happened to me last week. I had to clear my cache and reboot and it worked fine after that.

If you have trouble getting into chat, try these steps:

1. Open a page other then chat in your browser.
2. Click 'Tools' then 'Internet Opttions'
3. Click on the 'Delete Files...' button seen here:

clearcache

4. Check the box 'Delete all offline content' and click 'Ok' on this window:

clearcache2

5. Click 'Ok' again.
6. Close Internet Explorer and start again.
7. Click Here

Hope this helps.

Edit to add: Please be patient. I just tested these instructions and discovered the java client takes an extreme amount of time to fully load before you can begin chatting.

Otay, I de-cookified and de-cachefied myself per Dra's instructions, and am still getting the 0*** treatment. Anything else I can try? Anyone else having the same problem right now?

GAL, I have been having that problem for about two and ahalf weeks. I think I've given up. Almost.

If you're still having trouble, try this link: Webchat Java Client. You may be prompted with a security notice the first time you access this client. You should be able to safely click 'Ok' or 'Yes' to that prompt. Once you are in the channel, it will ask you for your nickname. Please enter it there and enjoy chat.

If that still fails, please visit www.java.com and check for an update to your java client then try one of our links again.

Hope this helps.
