AGS IRC

Overview

The AGS community has had an IRC channel for general chat in one form or another for around 5 years. The latest incarnation is #AGS on AGS-IRC, a network owned and operated solely by certain AGS community members. One much-loved resident of #ags is Roger, an IRC bot who loves to tell people messages, absorb and deal out factoids and play acro.

A channel also exists for AGS technical matters, aptly named #AGSTech, again on AGS-IRC. The procedure on #agstech is to call the names, one-by-one, of those who are opped or voiced (@ or + before their name) until one replies who will help you with your technical AGS problem.

History

The first #AGS was created around 5 years ago by Jeroen "def" Dekker, on QuakeNet. He chose QuakeNet, a network mostly associated with FPS gaming, rather than another more general chat network, because he already frequented several channels on the network.
