WebChat Guide

1. Log onto Rizon Web IRC Client:
   1. In the Nickname: field:
      • Please use your S.T.E.P. forum Username.
        • If the Username that you use on S.T.E.P. is unavailable then add another letter/number/special characters so that other members in the chat can identify your S.T.E.P. account.
        • If you prefer an alternative Username then it may be difficult for others to properly identify you.
   2. In the Channels: field:
      • At this point in time you will NOT be able to access the Unofficial S.T.E.P. Chatroom because the room requires a registered Nickname, you may leave it on #Rizon for now.
      • You will be able to access it later in this walkthrough.
   3. In the Auth: field:
      • Click on the down arrow to dropdown the box.
      • Select: Identify to NickServ

        Maybe a word about the password? Is it arbitrary? There is no password confirmation, so get it right? ~z929669 Talk 11

      Your nick is not registered. Would you like to register it now?

      Please enter a valid email address.

   7. Another dialogue box will appear and reads:

      Please enter a password for this nick.

      • Enter your desired password.
        • I would recommend a strong password to keep your Nickname safe.
        • Please do NOT share your password to any one, even friends.
      • Click [Ok].
   8. The last dialogue box will appear and reads:

      Please enter the code sent to your email to complete the registration process.

      • Leave that box open for the time being.
   9. Go to your email that the Nickname was linked to.
   10. Look for something similar to:

       Please type "/msg NickServ confirm XXXXXXXXX" to complete registration.

       • The "XXXXXXXXX" is going to be a unique set of characters that you need.
       • Highlight the code and copy it to clipboard.
   11. Go back to the Rizon page that had the dialogue box still open.
       • Paste the code in the dialogue box.
       • Click [Ok].
2. Your Nickname on Rizon is now registered and you can immediately access the room by selecting the input box at the very bottom of the page.

Common Rizon commands and helpful tips
If you type someones name then that member will receive an alert. This is handy if you want someone's attention and or you want to talk specifically to that person. The alert will depend on how the member has it set up and the client they are using. /me <message> Puts what you say into third person. /me says hello /nick <username> Changes your current Nickname to the one that you type after the command. The example given is a joke, please do NOT abuse this command. /nick Antiphazer11
