I dunno, I'm an IRC idiot. I get this:

I haven't been on IRC for a LONG time. Do I need to change . . . something?
posted by tr33hggr 03 August | 21:49
In fact, never since it switched from bunnies.
posted by tr33hggr 03 August | 21:54
OK, I bet it's the same problem a bunch of us had. Are you on ChatZilla? If so, you have to change the place in your Tools/Options or some such where it says "New Now Know How"

I think so. I use Mozilla, and click on the link. Crap. I'm goiing to smoke, will try again.
posted by tr33hggr 03 August | 22:20
Shit. What a bummer, I've fucked it forever.

Don't give up, tr33hggr. Get help from mudpuppie or Eideteker, somebody who understands this crazy computer business.
