Most GNU/Linux distribution users can replace 1-4 by something like one of the following:

pacman -S irssi
apt-get install irssi
emerge irssi

Also, it might be a good idea to add this url:

irc://irc.freenode.net/themanaworld/

To the top post.

Firefox also comes with a nice IRC client and it's free. =]

Just a heads up if you get the same error as I when you try to log on the main channel.
Apparently I had #manaworld as the main channel and today I entered and it was empty.There probably was a redirect to the newer channel #themanaworld and it died.So if the channel is empty check that you are in the right channel. :)

I am now using Opera in windows. Is there some way to "select" a username in these chat rooms that will automatically address the message to them?
