This was sent to us from Funcom. This is great new stuff, go and get yourself your own channel! 1. **New IRC server** Most of you have hopefully noticed already that we have launched an IRC server of our own. Here we have channels for e.g. all professions, tech help (coming soon), organisations, and general chit-chat. Server: irc.funcom.com Port: 6667 Main channel: #anarchyonline If you'll register a nick, and let us know who you are, we'll give you 'voice' in the main channel, and if you want an own channel for your site, we'll fix that too. :) 2. **Community Link forum** We have a forum on our bulletin board with access only for those connected to main Anarchy Online sites (and Funcom people of course). Here we will keep you up to date on what we're up to, and let you know when we send out screenshots and such, so you know who gets what. And feedback, questions and suggestions are of course very welcome. :) To get access to the forum, register an alias on the site. Then let me know what it is, and which site you are connected to, and I'll give you a title and access to the forum. We might also add special avatars for the different sites later. 3. **Community team tasks** We're currently working with a lot of different stuff in the Community team. Some are really not that visible, while others you already see results from, and will see more of in the future. In addition to the IRC server, the bulletin board and e-mails, here's a bit of what we're actually doing: - Working on getting the In Production pages more up to date. - Getting some leaks from new content to come (e.g. screenshots). - Considering how to best distribute all the 'stuff' (t-shirts, key rings, mouse pads, etc) we're hiding in our treasure vault. ;) - Updating the online game manual. - Being more active in-game (yes, we're in game quite a bit). Ok, that's more or less it this time around. I probably missed a few things, but no worry. If there's anything you have questions about, just let us know. :) E-mail to all of us: community@anarchy-online.com Bulletin board: http://forums.anarchy-online.com/ Looking forward to seeing you in IRC and on the bulletin board. :) Best regards, Thomas 'Cz' Johnsen Funcom Community Team
