When was your first IRC experience?

(1/4) > >>

mamochan:
Mine was back in the summer of 1995 when I had IBM as my ISP and it took over an hour to download a generic irc client (can't remember which one).
I joined weird teen chatrooms, because i was 17 at that time >_>;

It wasn't until 1996 I found decent anime chat rooms such as #anime (dalnet & efnet). I used those chatrooms to locate VHS Fansubs o.o

So there you have it, my first irc experience.
Other than that, I've used a chatroom BBS back in 1990 via 1200 Baud Modem through MS DOS 3.2

Anyone else have better stories than mine? :)

bobby6:
mine was the day I joined Live-eviL. Which was like.... June I think? Not so friendly to newbies lol. ;)

Blue Mage:
I was 18 when I discovered IRC to join the channel that a bunch of the ED (extended discussion) elitists from Gaia had.

bastard-sama:
my first expierence on irc was around 1996-97 with win95 and trumpet winsock (win95 didnt have tcp/ip stack built into it like it does now so you had to use another program :D) and then i came on irc in undernet i forget what the channel name... stayed there went on hiatus from irc for a few years then found some anime channels around 2000ish

suzaku_nomiko:
Ha ha ha!
Mine was way in,, 1996 some one connected to a Ranma web-page pointed to a Anime community on Dalnet So I picked the first nick that came to my mind :P

Suzaku.   It was taken 

So I adjusted.  and thus I became Suzaku_no-miko of Dalnet #anime and have been ever since :P

And like mamochan, I also used to use BBSes back in the old days.
we used one to swap our Jacosub and ssa files long ago.

Gone are the days of Fidonet And Mustang BBS!
