To enable in-depth conversations and fast responses to questions, an IRC channel has been created. Administrators are frequently online and can assist with questions or issues. This is a community resource, so please make yourself at home. WildStar Wiki and Gamepedia use the Freenode IRC network. Gamepedia's channel can be reached at #gamepedia.

What is IRC?
Internet Relay Chat (IRC) is a form of real-time Internet text messaging (chat) or synchronous conferencing. It is mainly designed for group communication in discussion forums, called channels, but also allows one-to-one communication via private message as well as chat and data transfer (including file sharing).

Channel rules

 * 1) Be civil. Abusive language, harassment, personal attacks, and trolling are not tolerated.
 * 2) No spamming or large blocks of text. If needed, use a pasting service like Pastey.org.
 * 3) No exploits or other topics that break Carbine's EULA or TOS, including testing NDA, will be discussed on the channel.
 * 4) English is the official language.

Basic IRC commands
Basic IRC commands can be used by everyone. Commands begin with a forward slash followed directly by the command: (Note: Do not type in these commands)

/join # -- Connects you to. All channels are preceeded by a hash (#).

/nick  -- Changes your current nick to 

/me -- Displays in the chatroom (i.e. /me waves yields "*JohnSmith waves" to the chatroom)

/away  -- Sets your status to Away and sends  to anyone who messages you

/msg -- Sends only to to rather than the channel at large

/quit -- Terminates your IRC connection

Additional help and commands can be found on Freenode's new user guide or on Wikibooks' IRC page.
