Well, since i'm on IRC every day i thought i would set one up if Webby approved. This is what Webby said.

I have no problem with you starting one if people are interested. The last one wasn't very busy, and I know it was getting spammed stuff

For those of you who don't know its pretty much like a chat room. Its not built into the website, but its ALOT better then any other chat program.
You can download IRC from clicking
mIRC: Download mIRC That link. Its only a 30 day trial, but i think you can still use it after its expired still.
To make it easy for people to connect to the server just click or copy and paste this link into your browser:
irc://irc1.0id.net:6667/8thcivic
If the above link does not work let me know.
If you know how to work IRC:
Server: irc1.0id.net
Channel: #8th civic

You also may want to register your nick names.
Basically, the way it works is, you register your nickname with a password and an email address. Now everytime you come back to the network, you will be asked to identify yourself using a simple command. This will make sure that you hold on to your nickname and nobody steals it on you.
The command to register usually is...
/msg nickserv register PASSWORD EMAIL
You must replace PASSWORD with a password of your choice and EMAIL with a VALID email address. It must be valid as some networks like you to verify it exists by sending you an email. Once you have registered your nick, when you come back to the network you must identify yourself, you can do this with these commands..
/msg nickserv identify PASSWORD
OR
/nickserv identify PASSWORD (should work, does on most networks)
Replace password with the password that you used to register your nick. Now all you have to do is NOT forget your password.
