Man:
Will there be an official IRC room for this forum?
While IRC rooms usually aren't as organized as a forum, they're excellent for on the spot help.

Sands:
Last we talked about it, we came to the conclusion of "not now". Right now the forums are new and surprisingly active, so your question would hopefully be answered quickly. Directing all the questions and talk to an IRC channel would leave these forums with no activity, and having some kind of permanent answers on a board would in my mind be much better. That, and right now we have no questions asked in our Questions and Answers board, so you don't have to worry about searching through old threads in case your question has been answered before.

In the future, perhaps we will have one.

Sands:
But it's not a Tulpa Network channel, keep that in mind.

Sands:
Honestly, I'd probably favor some kind of chatroom on these forums over IRC. A place for the forum-goers to speak together and help each other rather than an IRC channel, which often will evolve into its own community sooner or later. And I can't say the IRC versions of any community I've ever seen have ever been too good compared to the forum or the website.

But you'd know what we think about that too if you read my response to the original poster and just replace IRC with shoutbox or chatroom or whatever.

Sands:
That's... Basically what I said.
