Hello there,

You may or may not know that the alt.games.half-life newsgroup has an
IRC room. Details as to where to find this room can be found at the
bottom of this post.

Due to reasons that I won't go into, the most of the regulars who have
in the past hung around in there have now left and it's up to me to try
and inject some life back into the room.

In the future I anticipate that this may well be a room as popular as it
has been in the past and the release of Half-life2 will help along with
the many great modifications which will be released for it, as I've said
in other posts. If it doesn't get that inject then it may loose it's

In the past the IRC room has been used to organize bashes for such
modifications and as such should be kept alive. You can help with that.

So. If you leave your PC on, if you use IRC, (or even if you don't) lurk
there. There won't always be conversation there but if there is news
going around and as the amount of people in there grow so will the chat
and the news updates.

Remember, this IRC room is there for you. It was created for your
benefit. Make use of it.
