 Most players of Archmage and its clones use Internet Relay Chat (IRC) to communicate with other players. IRC is an "Internet Relay Chat" service that allows you to join and create chat rooms called channels. Before there was Yahoo! Chat and instant messaging, there was IRC.
-In order to access any IRC network, you will first need to acquire an IRC client software. The most popular IRC client software is mIRC (http://www.mirc.com/). mIRC is free for a 30 day trial period, at which time it will remind you to pay a small registration fee each time you run the program. The instructions in this guide apply specifically to mIRC. Some other IRC clients, including free ones and those for non-Windows platforms, are listed at the end of this guide.

 This is specific to the GalaxyNet server.
-Registering your nickname with galaxynet will allow you to kick someone offline if they are using your nick. Each time you connect, you can authenticate your nick so that other IRC users can tell if you are not the real owner of that nickname. Having a registered nickname ensures that you always have access to the channels you should have access to, and that nobody else can gain access to a restricted channel by impersonating you.

Having a registered nickname ensures that you always have access to the channels you should have access to, and that nobody else can gain access to a restricted channel by impersonating you. It also gives you access to Q, the GalaxyNet robot.
 GalaxyNet requires that you use an ISP email to register your nick. They do not accept yahoo, hotmail, gmail, or any other anonymous email. If your internet service provider has not given you an email account, most emails will work, but once they notice it's not an ISP email you will no longer be able to own, or register a channel, or support a new channel registration.
