''' See: [[Info/Signup]] '''Q: Why am I required to use IRC?''' Because I want to create an active community with users, something more than just a place to run your screens.

See: [[Info/About]] '''Q: I need help with a question in the signup quiz, can you help me?''' No, you have to find the answers on your own. You should be able to find all answers on this wiki or via Google. '''Q: Why are you not allowing IRC bots?''' Because they are boring. I would like my shell to be populated with active users, not bots. If you really want to run a bot, consider a donation. == For members == '''Q: My localized characters (é, å, ä, ö, ï etc) looks like garbage/questionmarks/something else, how can I fix this?''' See: [[FAQ/Unicode]] '''Q: links or elinks segfaults, why?''' This is usually because of color settings, for example if you try to run links in screen it will segfault if you have not done some extra configuration to get 256 colors to work inside screens. Some terminals also can't handle many colors. You can also disable colors within links to get it to work. == Longer topics == <<PageList(FAQ/)>> |
