The easiest way to join IRC is to click the link "Open IRC Chat Window" which is in the list of links at the far top left of all forums pages.

#SecondAge channel IRC Rules:

NEW RULE: No backseat moderating. Do not tell channel operators who to ban/kick/punish in any way. They can think for themselves, yelling 'ban him' only serves to make the channel more unruly.
Absolutely no flaming and bashing of other users in the channel. This is what #uosecondagepvp is there for, as well as private messaging, your own channel, and the trash talk forums.
No excessive profanity, this is at the discretion of a channel operator
No racism, religion, drugs, or political discussion
Stay on topic. Discussion on things other then UO, should not be at the expense of new users who are trying to get a question answered.
User bans are not open to discussion in #secondage
No advertising/spamming/flooding in the channel; No ALL caps.
All advertising for in game wares should be directed to #secondagetrade.
No channel ban evasion (if you are banned by an operator and deliberately evade the ban, the WildIRC Network staff may be informed, which could result in a ban from the network).
No transmitting the personal details of other users (name, phone number, social security number, bank/credit card numbers, etc).
Harassment of staff, ban evasion, or botting could be grounds for a shard ban.
These rules apply all the time, we will retroactively ban for violations of these rules even if no ops were on at the time.
Trading should be conducted in #secondagetrade. Perpetrating scams may not be done in the main IRC channel or in #SecondAgeTrade. Save it for ingame or #SecondAgePVP. However don't assume that just because we have this rule people won't try to scam you in channel, but channel bans may be enforced after the fact.

The staff of #SecondAge reserve the right to modify the following set of rules without prior warning, explanation or justification. Failure to comply with these rules may result in your temporary or permanent removal from the channel.

Due to so many repetitive instances lack of respect for staff members and other participants in the IRC channel #secondage, channel bans will no longer be removed. Bans have been a revolving door in the IRC channel for a handful abusive users.

If you have been banned in our main IRC channel, you are welcome to make your own IRC channel, or use the #secondagepvp channel.

IRC bans are simply IRC channel bans and have no effect on your ability to play on UOSA; however direct abuse of staffmembers in IRC or elsewhere for any reason can have an impact our your game account status.
