This is why IRC can be such a fun medium (I changed one nick to **** for obvious reasons):

[07:55] <skimpy>
:
:
:
[08:00] <Iggie> they're not going to add a specifid bldg just because you call customer service - nice dream, but get over it befor eyou waste your money on an international call

[08:04] <skimpy> USA 1
[08:04] <****> ok so that would be +1180086668696
[08:05] <skimpy> yeah, but i'm sure iggie is right about the wasted international call
[08:05] <****> uhh it doesnt work
[08:08] <Iggie> I know because I have common sense and I know that (A) cusotmer service reps will have no control over that and (B) no programmers (who WOULD have control over it) are going to be working at 1:45 pm on a Saturday
:
:

[08:13] <skimpy> who gave you that phone #? 1800toontown
[08:14] <skimpy> LOL

[08:18] <****> whats the real number?
:
:
:
[08:22] <****b> he gave me wrong number?
[08:22] <Iggie> always take what Trevor says iwth a grain of salt - he's silly :-)
[08:22] <skimpy> #'s on the main site in the FAQ
And the moral of the story? I have no idea. Maybe dont trust Trev? hehehe
or maybe - at least you will eventually get help on the IRC channel.

geez this must have been what silentseas was talking about when she was talking about kids not learning social skills.

At least to his credit he didn't drag that to these boards. Got to give him that much.

I really didn't like the IRC when I went there. I realized that the people I really wanted to talk with were already playing toontown as my secret friends.

Everytime I go there, someone is using my name, weirdly enough... I have no idea why.

So if you see Katsandra or Katsandra Picklebee, know it isn't me, cause I don't go on IRC.

Kat, the IRC servers that #tontowncentral is on are also used for lots of other channels (they are "Enter The Game" after all) so it is quite probable that someone in another channel altogether is calling themselves Katsandra (or wondering why someone in a strange sounding channel is using their nick).

I'm surprised if they chose to be "katsandra picklebee" - if they were, then they really were probably imitating you. And imitation IS the sincerest form of flattery.

BTW: The TTC channel is really most use in helping ppl who have conmnection problems - they can be talked through the process - or in getting toon type help when all your secret friends have found something else to do (like sleep). Other than that, it is very much IRC in all its *cough* glory.

Hey, watch it, pudgey. We worked hard to get #toontowncentral as good as it is. Even the Disney guys have said that they were impressed by how clean our channel is.

Yes that's true. It is very well run and amazingly enough for IRC it really is G rated.
But IRC is IRC ... a tool for some, a lifestyle for others. And I couldnt help but post that thread as it rates as classic IRC. Please dont set Tarzan of the Geese on me!

Oh boy... there is the reason why I don't go on irc! I'm not the most patient kitty in the world and stuff like that would just drive me batty.

Funny for the first few mins but then I would just pray for it to end! LOL!

Nevermind the fact that this individual has done this before. He berated Iggie and I for not working him into our already full crew for a Sell 5 in DL. He even went so far as to get nasty with us and wish our toons would lose all their laff points in the building.

Iggie and I got fed up with him. We told him in no uncertain terms that he could tell his story walking. He logged out in a huff. Personally, I've ignored him because my other way of dealing with him would be to s****e him off my shoes.
