mIRC room joining/making question?

Question

Whenever I make a room on Random US Quakenet server, and one of my friends tries to join, they join the room, but it says nobody is in there, and for me it says only I'm in there.
1] Do we have to be on the same port?
2] How do I fix this problem?

Answer 1

You could be on different servers, try using the /server command to ensure you get on the same on.
