1) Is their a IRC server that anyone knows of that's full of people from NZ that I can talk on? :)
2) If there isn't, would anyone use it if I purchased a small VPS and set up a ircd? :)
3) Does anyone know of any NZ webhosts that sell shell(ssh) accounts?

:cool:

489148 2006-10-04 07:24:00 There are programs like Mirc (www.mirc.com) and a few others, that have heaps of servers u can connect to chat to heaps of people in NZ and overseas.

Only thing is, this isnt free. BUT, I dont think it'll die on you.

489149 2006-10-04 07:31:00 Speedy Gonzales, I know what mIRC is, heh :)
What I want to know is if there are any servers out there that are mainly/all NZ'ers.

I doubt any server would have just kiwis on them.

489151 2006-10-04 07:41:00 Ignore Speedy i dont think hes got any idea what hes talking about. When I last used mIRC a few years back there were a couple of NZ based servers for NZer's, but couldnt confirm anything today. I doubt there would be many NZer's willing to join an IRC channel especially with the like of MSN and AIM being popular. Pete O'Neil (6584)

I do actually been using it for over 10 years, and I'm still using it.

I dont go to a lot of different servers. most probably why I dont know which ones have kiwis on them. I'll rather use Mirc, than Yahoo, MSN, Windows Messenger or any other IM program.
