If you have never used IRC before, it may be daunting and difficult to get it working. An easy option is to use Trillian or xchat and here are a simple set of instructions on how to get on

Xchat & IRC

There are many IRC clients, one is xchat, download from http://www.xchat.org/

Open the program and fill out your details into the fields on the popup. Select SlashNET from the list of servers.

Click Connect.

A popup should then appear, labelled "Connections to SlashNET Complete".

Select the Join a Channel option and type #rockettheme

Trillian & IRC.

You can download Trillian at http://www.ceruleanstudios.com/

Once you have installed Trillian, open the program and a little "console window" should appear. Select Trillian > Trillian Preferences > http://Plugins. Activate the IRC plugin with the tick box next to it

Go to Identities & Connections > Click Add New Connection > IRC >

Type into the fields
#rockettheme
irc.slashnet.org
*Your Nickname*
*Your Username*
*Your User Info*

-> Connect

Go back to the Trillian console screen (may need to click on the icon in the bottom right taskbar of your monitor)

Select the small glass, icon button underneath your avatar > Join a Channel > #rockettheme

A window should then popup which is the IRC Channel

Feel locked out 

Make it work again....please!

Is it down again?

I swear Wage or someone is banning me.

Must be the network in my area or something....none of them seem to work. 

  Bah-hahaha

LMAO

How about a skype public chat
