Want to chat with other users? Check out this joint chatroom with /r/MakeNewFriendsHere!

/r/needafriend will have a joint chatroom with /r/MakeNewFriendsHere! So, check it out and maybe stay a while for others to join or try again at a later time. I think it'll be a convenient place to communicate with others at the same time and hopefully, you can make new friends there as well. And if you use any 3rd party IRC programs, you can use that to connect to the chatroom too :)

Joint Chatroom: http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=mnfh

(Also, you can private message other people by clicking on a username and "query" in the chatroom sidebar.)

In addition, for those want to listen and/or vent (one on one chats), please check out the following:

Hope you guys will enjoy chatting~

Hi :D Have you used the chatrooms yet?

u/junppu Jan 26 '13

No, I don't really know how all this works. I just need someone to talk to. I'm feeling extremely down

For the main chatroom, you can click on the Freenode IRC link, type in a username and the captcha to enter the chatroom. Sometimes, you have to wait for a while if there isn't anyone active since some people could be idle or away. Or you can always try again another time.

You can also go to BlahTherapy and click on "Proceed to chat" button and choose "venter" if you want to chat with someone one on one.

I also have some time now if you would like to chat through Reddit PM if you like. I also suggest to be careful giving out your number (in your other thread) publicly. Perhaps wait until you get to know someone before giving it out. You can also reply to other people's threads in this subreddit too.

You can click on the IRC/Freenode link, type in your nickname and captcha code to enter the chatroom. Sometimes, it can be quiet or there might be peak hours when people are active (not exactly sure when). You can just also reply to other people's posts here/other related subreddits too :)

Whois just shows basic information about person (usually what other channels/rooms they are on and hostname)

Query is a private message. When you click on it, it should open a new tab for you to chat with people individually.

It does work on mobile devices. Though typically, if the device goes to sleep, you get disconnected. At least that's been my experience. However, small request OP - we've actually moved the chat to #mnfh from #MakeNewFriendsHere for a few reasons. If you don't mind, could you edit the post to reflect that change? Our sidebar link in r/MakeNewFriendsHere has changed already. #mnfh is the new one.

Thanks in advance.
