If you do find or create one, I'll add a link to it if you like.

Just for those of use that have trouble with TLA's (Three Lettered Acronyms)
IRC is Internet Relay Chat

Here's a page I put together a few years ago when the windmill guys used IRC a lot. Dont know how active their server is these days, I dont get much time to chat on IRC.

The page explains how to use XChat, you would need to change the server address to suit Plazma's IRC.

we run a channel at Propellerpowered. I'd recommend that you do what we did and pick and a day and time for folks to get together and chat. It's worked well for us.

I do have a chat room function on my web site, let me see what it does, I just created a room called mmbasic

http://mmreference.com/chat-room/mmbasic/

might post a test login or two for people to play and see if that suits - its browser based
