BlizzCon Preparations and Chat Room
Choosing the new Staffies was pretty hard. We actually received a lot more applications than we had expected, this went a lot better than we thought it would. If you applied and didn't receive a response, I really apologize. Normally I want to get back to everyone who replied to give them an idea of why they were not chosen for the position, but with BlizzCon so close, things have been extremely busy. Just keep in mind, if you weren't chosen, don't quit! Stay here, keep hanging out in our community... Those of you who stood out will hopefully be there in the future for more Staff opportunities.

In addition to the new Staff, we are going to setup a Chat feature... Unfortunately, IPChat does not want to cooperate with us, so i'm resorting to just IRC! Yay! There will be an on-site IRC application within the next day or so. Otherwise, those of you who want to use a separate client, you can use Mibbit or FreeNode Webchat within your browser, or external applications like XChat or mIRC. The server information is as follows: chat.freenode.net:6667 #diablofans. Again, if you don't want to use a separate client/tab, you can just wait for the application to go up on the website within the next day or so.
The direct link to the DiabloFans chat room can be found here.
I see superceb on the staff list but no Mephy(I mean in the moderating team link). How come?
No joke this time or somebody will report my ass for sure. :sweat:
I already did that, but why not, right.
And yay for chat! ^^ I'll probably be hanging around in the room.
in the nickname field type your forum name
and in the channel field type #diablofans
or try this

Get on there guys. Hardcore stuff going on.

Oh my gawd, I hadn't realized it's wednesday already! Blizzcon is mere hours away!
Although, come to think of it, I live in Europe (GMT+1).. Has anyone calculated yet around what time the important D3 events will be for us Europe people?
Probably like in the middle of the night :confused:
The above is not really correct. Anaheim is 7 hours behind GMT (thus 9 hours behind GMT+2/Sweden).
Here are the scheduled key times converted to GMT (24-hour format).
Friday 22nd:
Saturday 23rd:
So the last Diablo panel (Q&A) ends 24:00 Saturday night GMT+1 time.
Hah! Yes true, I blame 3:00am over here :whistling:
It''s weird though, as a basic member I always like looked up to the mod's, admins and all of them. But now that I'm one of them, I still feel like a regular old member the same as always.
Does that make since? Despite the fact that I have been granted privileges I feel like I'm still on the same playing field as all of the other members.
Maybe you have to be one of those cool jocks they call News Staff to feel special lol.
That's an awesome site (for lots of stuff)! Thanks for the tip.
