Paperirc?

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

I run a chat website started in 2006.

 

These days we use a customized IRCd server and our own webchat but for nostalgia I wanted to set up a PaperIRC server which we started out on (lol).

 

But I can't seem to find the last copy that was ever released so I was wondering does someone have a copy that they could put up?

 

I did find a copy, but seems it was the first ever version and all in French.

 

Thanks,

 

Alex

Thanks err0r.

 

I'm not sure what you found, but the ones that I found were on an old site by Paper himself but they were all the earlier versions and still in French.

 

Really I'm looking for Paper IRC 9 or similar, I remember there used to be this website WinZero that had them all but that seems dead now.

 

So, here's to hoping that someone has a copy ;-)

 

Thanks,

 

Alex

Paper was good 10 years ago until ppl learned it was very easy to crash it.

In my opinion its not worth running now days.

I still run a OCX chat server with Trivia Arena.

It is very modified with duel data base authentication.

Office IRC will give you the ocx chat looking like paper and more secure.

This does take a lot of coding but it works well.

Getting a paper server is just the start, you then have to code your site pages to authenticate and then there is profiles.

The list goes on... If you want to do it right!

Lots of people are against running the OCX chat now days but its still running on allot of sites and doing well.

Paper 8 was a good copy, I think I still have it some where as I ran it years ago. Again it was very crash able.

Hope this helps

 

lol ... I did do it right ;-) I have 3.5K chatters.

 

I want a copy for a "look what we were like 10 years ago" thing :-)

 

If you have a copy of Paper 8, care to upload ?

 

btw, looking at your site, I don't think you're in any place to give advice lol j\s

Design is always subjective. What one person likes another person hates. There is room on the net for all that wish to build. I respect anyone that takes the time to try and build something. Especially when it's to offer a service to others.
