For those who don't already know, we have an IRC channel on Freenode! The server info is:

Server: irc.droid-life.com
Port: 6667
Channel: #cvpcs

Stop in and say hi! Ask a question! Look for help! See what's happening! Talk about something completely unrelated to android! It doesn't really matter, it's IRC... anything pretty much goes ><

Well!!! I just tried this IRC and here was my welcome:

[04:26] -makina- The cake is a lie! O.O
[04:28] <Cakesalicious>
[04:28] <Cakesalicious> hi? lol
[04:29] * lilRikki (~lilRikki@72-24-7-74.cpe.cableone.net) Quit (Quit: I'm out, edited)
[04:31] <Cakesalicious> makina? what does that mean?
[04:35] <Cakesalicious> well....way to make a newbie to sapphire feel welcome :-D have a nice day!

Hopefully your op's are nicer to other ppl. :shocked:

It says the same thing when I log in, I do not think it is directed at you personally.

Its not the welcoome message says there will be cake. And maina the bot says that the cake is a lie.

lol - makina is a bot, that's why you were given a less than friendly reception.

these time stamps indicate you were on pretty early in the morning, I don't know how many of us were around. please do stop in another time especially if you need support, we'll be happy to help.

Lol, I got a few pics of things said in the chat that would be good for this thread.

But what is said in the chat, stays in the chat. Though looking back at them gives a good lol

makina is indeed a bot.

This is a joke related to the video game, Portal. In the game, the enemy computer system GladOS continually reassures the player that there will be cake at the end of their training, but it ends up that the cake is a lie. This had become somewhat a common joke around the internet.

The chatroom mimics that joke in that Chanserv sends an entry message stating to stay awhile and that there will be cake, to which makina PMs the user on entry "The cake is a lie! O.O"

I am sorry if you felt that you got a less-than-acceptable welcome, as technically all of the actual OPs were asleep at that point (the only human ops in the channel are myself and sniffle). Please stop by again sometime, and hopefully there are no hard feelings

Don't believe a word that's been said in this thread. The people in that channel are downright charming and pleasant. I wouldn't join if you paid me.

Yes, you should come back to the channel. All the cool old people hang out there.

Except me, I hate it there. :icon_evil:


Oh wait, no I don't.

Want to get word out about the IRC channel? Lets move it out of here and into General Discussion.

what are you guys using to connect to the irc channel? I am having problems getting connected from my pc, but would really like to see what this is about, and I have a few questions that asking in the irc would be much easier. (I am a noob to irc)

try xchat for a client. free, available for both win and linux
