Re: Anyone interested in IRC

Do you still have any IRCCloud invites? I'd love one so I can be on #redline-st during the day...

Thanks!

Grr. I just went to log on, and got this message:

You were disconnected for inactivity 18 minutes ago. Free accounts are only allowed 2 days of inactivity.

This is a subscription service. Not all the limits are enforced during the beta, but your current usage exceeds the normal allowance.

My only option is to upgrade my account, min £3/mo plan. That sucks.

Re: Anyone interested in IRC

Well, I have had intermittent internet access the last couple days and so it was not entirely voluntary inactivity.

Another option, especially if you already have a VPS or other
persistently connected server is just to run irssi in a tmux or screen
session. That's what I used to do. I had to drop my VPS due to budget
constraints.

Re: Anyone interested in IRC

Just to explain the message: "You were disconnected for inactivity 18 minutes ago. Free accounts are only allowed 2 days of inactivity."

This does not mean your free account will be revoked after 2 days of inactivity. IRCCloud is a service that allows you to disconnect and resume connection, all the while being able to read the conversation that you missed while you were disconnected. When you exceed the 2 days of inactivity, it just means that history will be lost.

Re: Anyone interested in IRC

I have three more invites to IRC Cloud if anyone is interested.
