Problems accessing IKM and Knightmare Chat

Post by Canadanne »

Anyone know what's up with IKM? I hope it's just some temporary downtime...

I've just been in it and it seems fine, unless i'm missing something!

Oh man! My bookmarks haven't been working all week (still aren't) and I couldn't connect to chat yesterday, so I thought the whole thing was offline, but I see the website *does* load if I remove 'www' from the URL. How odd. And there is a chat log from yesterday, so it must have been working for everyone else, but still doesn't work for me! What am I doing wrong?? It gives me the message "irc.knightmare.org.uk: Could not resolve hostname". :(

I've no idea Annie!! Wish I could help! I don't know which client you use, (i use the 2nd one down of the four) but it worked fine for me. I guess Pooka can help you here? Hope you can get it sorted! :)

I always use Mibbit as the ones listed on IKM don't work for me. Pookaaaa, any ideas?

What's Mibbit?! Never heard of this. Is it better to use?

Works like a dream usually, unlike CGI::IRC which kept disconnecting me (without even telling me) every few minutes.

So, um, is it just me again, or is most of IKM not working at all now?

I had a word with Forester and both IKM and Knightmare Chat are working perfectly from my end now he's fixed it.

With regards to Mibbit, I set up an independent widget here whereby you can access the Room every Sunday night (or any time, really, but people are usually only there on Sunday evenings). You're right, the ones on IKM aren't great, especially CGI, but it'll do in a pinch.

Yup, 'tis all running beautifully now... things are even working that have never worked properly before! Hope to see some new (and old) faces in Knightmare Chat once the Challenge episodes begin! :)
