    For some reason whenever I click the IRC Chat button the window that comes up doesn't load and has a red "X" on the upper left corner. Earlier today I was able to get onto IRC, but I can't seem to be able to know. Does anyone know the cause for this and how to fix it? I'd really appreciate it, thanks :)

    Edit: Okay so I just downloaded mIRC to see if it would work and for some reason everytime I attempt to connect to the DLP server I get "server can not be resolved". Does anyone know how to fix that? I'm connecting using /server irc.darklordpotter.net

    Use ChatZilla or mIRC or something along those lines.

    Try /server irc.darklordpotter.net:6666. That's how I connect.
