I agree that JJ2 needs an IRC channel. I would probably prefer one of the servers I have a regestered nick on, but any one that has a fast connection is fine with me. The problem with the other #JJ2 channels was that they were not promoted enough. None of the sites advertised the channel, so not many people knew about it. Maybie naxt time J2O could have a link to the channel beside the link to the forum (it could open a java appelet).
