I want to use the chatroom, but I don't want to download an independent program to do this.

can anyone nudge me in the right direction?

I brought up that page and it reads

===============================

now, the first thing I do is type in my screen name: 76
then I ignore the server-thing, and go straight down to the channel, there I put in "#amv" then I hit "login" it goes to a chat window and starts loading

===loading==

never mind everyone, turns out, my former screen name, "isudae76"
was never changed for the chat-thing, and all I had to do was type my former name to log in.

THANKS TJ

I tried it. Apparently you can't have a name with just numbers. You need some letters in it.
