Guidance on IRC ettiquette
* Due to the small number of members, conversation on the channel will at times be non existent. * Do not TYPE IN UPPERCASE as this is considered shouting. * When requesting help for a technical question, please wait for a response. * #Orbiter-Forum is an informal chat. There will, more often than not, be conversations not relating to Orbiter. * Changing your nickname is disruptive and makes it difficult for other users to follow conversations. * If you are unsure of the rules, think would you post it on the forum. If not, don't post it on the channel. * Bots are strongly discouraged. see http://orbiter-forum.com/showthread.php?p=192473 for more information on the IRC channel
