Any kAoS members on xfire? <a href='http://www.xfire.com' target='_blank'>http://www.xfire.com</a>
Makes it easier to find players, and what games they're in, join the games they are in, add your favourite servers and launch right into them instead of going into UT2004, Join Game, Favourites and then Joining - saves a bit of time and clicking ;) Crosses into other games, know when someone on your friends list is playing Diablo 2, WarCraft or Counter-Strike Source (soooo jealous of some people on my friends list heh). Works good, not that I'm trying to force it on anyone... just asking if anyone is already :)
If so, add me! kindgalaxy
I enjoy playing with/against kAoS members, you guys got game! ;)

Hmm KindG, we've recently talked about XFire, and had mixed feelings about it, some members like it, some don't. From what I know, Kaos tends to rely mostly on mIRC for it's communications, though some of us (including me) use ICQ as well.

dang heh... well I use MSN too, since most of NZL use it though I'm trying to change that ;) ICQ is too ad-based for my liking and I'm not technical enough to get into mIRC hehehe. Oh well, just asking :) On xfire I usually spot some kAoS members on the servers in my favourites, and try and join in ;)

edit: oh and thanks for calling me KindG... your the first person in 7 years to do it. Most call me King or KinG for short and I HATE that. Thanks :)

Oh, that's okay KindG, that's what you called yourself with your clan tag on anyways. IRC isn't that hard, I'm a noob with it and I use it okay. If you want some reading material on it, try the IRC help archive:

<a href='http://www.irchelp.org/' target='_blank'>Here</a>

Oh, if you want to download it, download mIRC Plus from <a href='http://www.celticwarlordz.com/irc/mpsetup.exe' target='_blank'>Here</a>. This one seems to be a special version, and it doesn't nag you for payments either.

I suggest you at least try it for the hell of it.

Testing has been finshed and has been uninstalled...sorry KindG. It will not be installed again unless the company changes it way that it manages memory and applications.

it locked up the other application and halted them from responding. I have 2gig of memory. If they fix up their process threads (usage method) then i may think about it.
