IRC (Internet Relay Chat) is used for a lot of things one of its primary features is for finding scrims and also for finding out information about clans. Our channel had been messed up so I took it upon myself to fix it. The first thing you will need to do is register with gamesurge this so when you join it it will give you the correct admin privileges. This done through the web page below.

Then once you have gone and registered you can go through and download Mirc. That is the program that runs IRC it is the moste widely used and well known. Once you download it it will be easy enough to setup following my instructions. It can be downloaded from the following page.
