==Need General Help with IRC?==
If you're able to connect to IRC and join channels, try asking for help in [ircircs://irc.mozilla.org/introduction #introduction], [ircircs://irc.mozilla.org/mozillians #mozillians], [ircircs://irc.mozilla.org/newbies #newbies], [ircircs://irc.mozilla.org/seneca #seneca] or [ircircs://irc.mozilla.org/coding #coding]. The folks who hang out in those channels will be happy to help.
You can also get help from IRC by doing:
==How to ask questions on IRC==
* Join a question-friendly channel like [ircircs://irc.mozilla.org/introduction #introduction], [ircircs://irc.mozilla.org/mozillians #mozillians], [ircircs://irc.mozilla.org/newbies #newbies], [ircircs://irc.mozilla.org/seneca #seneca] or [ircircs://irc.mozilla.org/coding #coding].
* Ask away! You don't have to ask permission to ask first. It is better to just blurt out your question, even though you don't know if anyone is paying attention.
* Leave your IRC client open if nobody answers right away. Most of the folks on IRC do not spend all day watching their IRC client. They just leave it open while they're doing other things. It might be an hour before the right person notices your question. When answering someone's question, especially if there's a delay, the nick of the questioner should be used in the answer so that you'll see a highlighted line with their response. (eg: "lsblakk: the answer is 42")
