Halo3Planet, the place for all things Halo 3..

Need help finding skulls, make sure to go here.

To the most of my knowledge, Bungie does not have an IRC server either dedicated to or run by them. In my opinion, it would be kind of cool to have one. I realize that this is what the forums are supposed to be for, but I feel that a place like that to chat in could turn out to be a pretty nice place to be, where all members of the community would be able to have realtime conversations about whatever they want.

Now, I'm not saying that this is necessary, because it isn't. I just feel it would be a pretty neat thing for Bungie to have. Neither am I saying it should actually be a part of Bungie.net. What I mean is just a server for or run by Bungie. There wouldn't need to be a java chat or anything on the site, it would just be a place for the site. Now I'm sure there is some reason that Bungie hasn't done this, and it will be pointed out to me shortly. All I know is that I would like to be able to talk in real time to the community in general.

Mourne not your comrades who must dwell / too strong to strive -
Within each steel-bound coffin of a cell, / Buried alive;
But rather mourne the apathetic throng / The cowed, and the meek -
Who see the world’s great anguish and its wrong / And dare not speak.

Just in case you aren't sure, there is an unofficial irc server run by bungie.org at irc.bungie.org.

And I think that that is also the reason why bungie doesn't have an official one. Also, things are talked about in IRC that Bungie would not want to appear to condone. Leaving it with the fangroups removes Bungie from any liability.

In case you don't have an IRC client, you can get to us at chat.moap.net as long as you have working java. Once in the room you can access the server list to get to any other room you might want to check out.

Watch out for Aku if you go in there, though. He likes to fondle people's manhood.
