 IRC stands for [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Relay_Chat|Internet Relay Chat]] and it is a text chat system where you can talk to community members in the channel //#cryptoparty// on the [[http://www.oftc.net/|irc.oftc.net server]].
-  #cryptoparty@irc.oftc.net

+#cryptoparty@irc.oftc.net

 To use it, you can either
-  * Go to  [[https://oftc.net/?channels=cryptoparty|https://oftc.net]] in your browser (this works with Torbrowser, too, for added anonymity).
+  * Go to [[https://oftc.net/?channels=cryptoparty|https://oftc.net]] in your browser (this used to work with Tor-Browser, too, but OFTC currently does not like Tor).
   * Dial in with one of the many chat clients as for example [[http://pidgin.im|Pidgin]], which you might already know from using it for Jabber+OTR.
+For advanced use, see the [[:connect:contact:irc:irssi_plus_tor|irssi+tor guide]] and the [[https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/TorifyHOWTO/irssi|Torprojects Torify HowTo (irssi)]].
