Chat Applets

[ralphfan]

I just wanted to know what other users thought about chat applets and IRC clients.

Why is there a random closing date?

It's 100 days.

 

[Super Mario Bros.]

MarioWiki applet is the best

Chatzilla.

MarioWiki applet sucks ass due to channel restrictions, and the fact that it's smaller than the Userpedia applet.

 

[Yoshario]

Darkmyst, Mibbit, mIRC, and Chatzilla would not be considered applets, because they're not written in Java.

PJIRC (the MarioWiki and Userpedia applet) sucks, you can't even /whois.

Mibbit and the darkmyst CGI:IRC also suck, as they are not very customizable.

I've heard good things about mIRC, but I don't use it.

I use ChatZilla, and that's a great client.

Darkmyst was my favorite, but now Mibbit (which sucks, imo) is the only chat applet my computer can handle because of it's crappy processor. I might give Chatzilla a try, though.

mIRC.

mIRC.

How exactly does mIRC work? I know you have to download it to your computer, but I don't know much else about it.

It's similar to Chatzilla, but better.

per, mostly

The only good thing about miibit is taht it looks neater.
What i love about the MW applet is the fonts

When I go into the chat, which is pretty rarely, I just login through the MarioWiki.

 

[ralphfan]

I prefer UP because of the size and ability to use certain channel commands. Plus, you can access all the channels through there, like #ralphchat.

 

[Uniju]

Trillian. Why can't you vote for Trillian? The founder of this website uses Trillian.

 

[ralphfan]

I'll add that.

 

[Uniju]

Thank you.

Until recently, I used the Userpedia applet, but I recently started using mIRC since I finally discoveed how to make it workm and find it to be more useful than the Userpedia applet.

 

[ralphfan]

I'll use Darkmyst if I'm in an AC or UCT meeting because it rarely pings, but other than that, I use UP.
