I just visited the IRC channel #tropers on Espernet. Used to be the main unofficial gathering place for TV Tropes folks though it ended up with its own community. Used to be crazy active; #yackfest
-
I was introduced by #tropers to both Mai-HiME and Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha.

* people at #tropers on Espernet, including people are disgruntled ex-tropers themselves and people who were not associated at all with TVT who just started hanging out there because their friends wer

FYI we will most likely be on the Espernet Network (connect through irc.esper.net, which will throw you to one of the network's several servers worldwide). Espernet currently houses #tropers and #yac

We will eventually have an IRC channel, once I get that set up. It'll be on Espernet, so we might also find some #yackfest and #tropers people there.

@Skellie (an op on #tropers) lives in eastern CT, in Griswold I think, and her town shows 100% outage. So I assume the same is with her.

#tropers used to be a bunch of people who were mostly separate from the forums and who thought the forum was a gigantic hugbox full of idiotically idealistic...idiots.
-
And I know that some people (*cough*#tropers*cough*) just don't like the forums because they think they're full of idiots.
-
I read the whole post as well. I notice you confirmed my suspicions about how #tropers users regard us forumites.
-
Well, I'll tell the #tropers-on-slashnet story.
-
Well yeah, I meant #tropers when I said "IRC". Much like how I sometimes say Army to refer to the US Armed Forces.
-
Bon is the founder of #tropers (including some fairly complicated history I think I'll let GMH explain to you). He has no power in #yackfest and never has.
-
Do the people at #tropers still think the forum is full of idiots, by the way?
-
He was a #tropers regular, who discovered #yackfest, and went onto the fora and acted like an asshole.
