My sincere apologies if this has already been mentioned.
First of all, I have Mac OS X (and I don't have Virtual PC), so I can't run NetBattle.
I've heard people mention battling on AIM. Is there a way to? Granted, it wouldn't be like NetBattle, but I'd like to know if there is a way to battle on AIM, and if so, I'd like to know how. Thank you in advance for your input. Take care.

Yes, go back to the main board selection screen and find the URPG section at the bottom. Of course, we have very LOW URPG participation lately, but we can fix that.

Actually, there's a program in the IRC universe called the RSBot that lets you do that. Since there are Mac programs that let you access IRC (obviously not mIRC since that's for windows), you can click on the link in my sig to see a tutorial of how to do that. Do note that it is a lot more complicated than Netbattle's WYSIWYG format.

Thanks for all your input. Mlugia, I do have ChatZilla (Netscape's IRC) but I'm still getting used to how to use it. I will look into rsbot (and I will also look into gsbot). Thanks and take care.

P.S.
I tried to use gsbot (I went to the #battlearena channel), but I can't seem to make a team. The guide (your gsbot link) says to give the commands to evilgsbot or another bot, but I can't find either. What should I do?

I haven't gone to the GSbots in awhile, and since GSC is almost all but dead, it might be a better idea to start with RSbot, and once you get used to that, ask around where GSBot is.

I know RSarena is still there since I was on it just a few days ago during my Computer Science Lab class

I just got used to RSBot. I'm setting up my team. Thanks again. Take care.
