IRC is a chat-network, which is used to talk free and directly with other users. To use it you have to either install an IRC-client or use one of the online IRC widgets and connect to the OGN Server.

You can have fun in OGame as a lone warrior, but after some time most players look for an alliance so they can work close together with other users. An alliance is a federation of players who have pooled together to be more successful. An alliance is not only useful for supporting each other with better trading rates or helping against attacks, it is also a nice place where you have somebody to answer your questions or just have a chat.

[edit] How can I find an alliance?

To find an alliance you can either click on the galaxy menu to see which alliances are near you or you can have a look at the highscore list. Of course you can also ask players who you know to see if there is a free place for you in their alliance. The Universe Area of the OGame Board is a good place to look for alliances too, there's generally a thread for alliances to present themselves and search for new members. When you find an alliance you would like to join, you have to click “alliance”, then “search alliance”. Here you can search for your chosen alliance and use the button to apply for it. Fill out the application and if the leaders will approve, you will be accepted in this alliance.

Alternatively you can also establish your own alliance. To do this, go to “alliance” and then “create alliance”. Then you have to create a Name and a Tag (normally a shortcut fitting to the Name) and bring it into being, you are now the founder of your own alliance. Now you can start to attract other players to your alliance or you can design your alliance area to make it more appealing to other users first. You are not limited to using ‘normal text', it is also possible to use BBCode, which is also often used in forums. In the chapter Alliance page guide you'll find everything needed for designing your page. If you need a nice logo but don´t know how to make it, you can ask for help in the Fan Art Area of the OGame Board. Be aware you have to respect the rules when creating your alliance area, any abusive or unlawful content can result in a ban.

Furthermore there are so-called alliance ranks that are created by the founder and can be given to individual members. Often this is used to mark new members or to honor deserving members of the alliance. It is also possible to add special rights to the ranks so the founder can dictate which members can edit the alliance area, like accept new members or disband the alliance.
