CHATROOM LOGIN INSTRUCTIONS:

In order to access the Main Street Trading Room, we recommend using mIRC.

Important Note: A moderator MUST BE PRESENT in order to access the channel. If you are unable to access it afterhours, please stop by again during the regular trading week!

The mIRC chat platform can be found at http://www.mirc.com. It comes with a 30 day free trial. This former shareware product requests a nominal registration fee after 30 days, but if you already have mIRC, it is easy to change the configuration to accommodate the change in the server. The quick and dirty method is to type the following into any channel:

/server irc.othernet.org:6667

You can then change your configurations under mIRC Options to log you in automatically as shown below.

When starting from scratch, once you have installed your mIRC, which you can do in another directory from an existing mIRC to avoid losing previous configurations, open the program and it will ask you to complete your personal login information. If you have used the Main Street Chat Room in the past, please log in using your existing username.

Before connecting to the server, look to the left and under Connect, choose Servers.

Under Servers, scroll up to Othernet with the subheader Random server and select OK.

Now select Connect to server if it does not do so automatically and an mIRC Favorites box will appear. Type #MainStreet and select Join.

If you have not used othernet in the past and do not have a registered nickname, it will invite you to register at this point. Select the Othername Name tag near the top left of the screen and then type /msg NS register and then type the password you would like associated with this nickname. If I choose "apple" for instance, I would type the following

 /msg NS register apple

and then hit enter.

You must confirm your nick every 20 days for it to stay registered. You can do this automatically by hitting Alt and then + and then O (as in Options). Hold down the Alt key at the same time as you then hit the plus sign followed by the "O". This will open up the mIRC Options menu again. Under Connect, go to Options. Select the settings you wish to use. I recommend selecting them all. Then choose Perform.

Next type the following:

/msg NS AUTH followed by the password you used to register your nick. This is:

/msg NS AUTH apple

in our example.
This will keep your username registered as long as you log in once in every 20 day period. You can type

/join #mainstreet

under it to automatically log into #mainstreet when you connect.

Make sure the "Enable perform on connect" is selected and hit "OK".

If you are in another channel, you can type

/list

to display a list of available channels. Double click on #Mainstreet to join the channel.
