do i need any special requirements to login to QC chat(technically speaking)?
I use the IRC client Chatzilla, an extension of mozilla. Technically, you could also get in if you went into the OTS or wrongplanet chat by using java (you can do this through the sites), and then press /join #QuirkyCarla. Actually, I haven't tried that on the OTS site and the wp site is evil.
If I was a computer whiz, I'd know how to make a way to get straight into #QuirkyCarla through java. larval/iamlost created a way to get into it through CGI, but I can't find the link.
