Channels

Join one of our IRC channels on Freenode:

#minetest (logs): main channel
#minetest-dev (logs): development channel, only serious stuff; note that webchat is muted due to too much spam/flood

Rules

Some people don't know how to behave in IRC, so here are some simple rules:

Don't ask if you can ask questions, just ask.
Be patient when you ask something, people might not be arround.
Don't spam.
Don't flood the channel with messages or bot commands.
Use a pastebin if you want to post more than 4 lines (such as error messages or code).
Annoying, racist, or any form of derogatory terms against any user or channel operator will probably get you quieted; or even banned.
If you're going to ask someone something, "please" goes a very long way.
The channels are not playgrounds and are frequently used for talks which are not off-topic.
Off-topic is allowed, but excessive use of it is disallowed.
Link shorteners are discouraged for URLs that are not very long.
