my friend, say hello to irc.
download an irc client from
www.mirc.com and search the entire irc network thru search engines like
www.ircspy.com or
www.isohunt.com
Antagony has written a good guide for using irc for the tfp chat
http://tfproject.org/tfp/showthread....threadid=18231 and should teach u the basics.
pm me if u need any help with irc.
