Fan-made Chat Environments

Hello, White Wolf gamers!

With the closing of White Wolf's official chats, many of you will be looking for other places to go. I've opened this thread for people to place their World of Darkness chat environments. (I'll start a similar thread in other forums.)

To make things easier, please post in the following format:

Name of chat
URL:
Format: (Digichat, SEaChat, PHPchat, etc.)
Location(s): (New York, London, Hong Kong, Darwin, Scranton, etc.)
Supported Venues: (Mortals, Vampire, Werewolf, Mage, Promethean, Changeling, Hunter)
Moderation: (Moderated, Unmoderated, combination)
Status: (Active, in production, etc.)
Other Information: ("Looking for Mage STs," "Opening March 20th," "Run by STs from the official chats," etc.)

I'm not sure the forums are currently auto-linking URLs, so make sure you turn them into links.

Happy gaming!

Qcks:

Dwell in Darkness
URL:http://www.dwellindarkness.com/

The "prove you're human" image for site registration appears to be broken. Given that the user is presented with a mere seven options for logging in, it's a matter of simple brute-force attempts to successfully enter. Good for people trying to register, bad for keeping spammers out.

Additionally, an unsuccessful guess redirects the user to YouTube, but whatever video was the target of the link doesn't exist anymore.

Apologies in advance for what is essentially a re-post: are any of these chatrooms available for talking about writing games, rather than roleplaying them online?

DiD is more of a writing game then a chat RPG.
Like i said, alot of play does take play in the chat, but there's alot that takes place in the forums. If you're interested in writing i suggest looking in DiD
As for the spam bots, when i played there spam wasn't an issue since it was listed as a bannable offense and there's nearly always a moderator online who can permaban IP's.

Hello,

I am the admin and creator for WiltingLilies.com. We are in the process of creating a new Chat site for the 2nd edition World of Darkness games. So far we are planning on running Vampire the Requiem, Mage the Awakening, and Werewolf the Forsaken, as well as various mortals for each venue.

Currently, we are accepting applications for STs and Assts, as well as Head Sts for each venue and gameline. If you would like more information or would like to apply, please go to WiltingLilies.com.

Please be patient with us, as we are still working on the site. If you would rather email for more information, please do so.

We are not open to players just yet, we will once we get more STs and Assts, but please keep checking back as the site is updated daily. We hope to open Summer of 2009 or Fall of 2009 for play.

Thanks for reading and we hope to see you soon!
