+= '''Connect to the OpenPandora channel?''' =
 In your IRC Client (Provided you have read up on how to use it) the server should be Freenode (irc.freenode.org) and the channel you will join is #openpandora which can seem dead until someone speaks!
 If you're using the web client, ensure you enter #openpandora as the channel and join with your forum nick (if its not taken by someone already.
 Enjoy using the channel and don't be sad if aTc hates on your programs! :P We are very friendly.
