How to use IRC correctly @ #manjaro
What is IRC?
#manjaro IRC is a place to provide additional direct support to Manjaro users.
You can access it from the Community tab at Manjaro.org or by using an IRC client like Weechat, Hexchat or Quassel to connect to the #manjaro channel on irc.freenode.net.
It's not a replacement for the forum, but supplements it with direct community support. Sometimes it is quiet and sometimes busy, but we will try to help.
Also, sometimes the reason it is busy is that the conversation has gone off-topic!
For further issues that can't be solved on IRC there is always the Forum.
Asking questions on IRC
- Ask the question. You don't need to ask for permission to ask, or to find out if anyone is willing to answer the question.
- Make sure you have time to wait for an answer(10 minutes is a bare minimum). If you don't get an answer, it's likely people don't know, are middle of writing one or didn't notice the question.
- Try to be concise with your question.
- Even if you see a lot of people listed on the channel, this doesn't mean that they are actually present.
How do I use Manjaro IRC?
To identify yourself on Qwebirc the web IRC client at manjaro.org you can type:
/nick (your nickname)
To make it clear you are a human being.
Further, the rules of the IRC channel are to be friendly, just be yourself and everyone will get along fine.
Manjaro IRC is multilingual
It is always a good idea to look for IRC channels in your region too.
- manjaro = Main IRC channels
- manjaro-de = German IRC Channel
- manjaro-es = Spanish
- manjaro.bnl = Dutch / belgium users
- manjaro.fr = French users
