Website
The CTWUG-WoW website is the main portal into the World of Warcraft. It is where you create your account and where you can find critical information about the server status. When you log into the website you are able to find information about the different character classes and races and you can test your talent specifications for your characters on the website.

The forum and the RSS feed on the website is currently closed, but when the new website is up and running it will be used more regularly.
Note: When a new account is created on the website, the server respond with a message Account Banned. This message is inaccurate as the account is not banned and you can safely start playing World of Warcraft. The server admins are working on this issue.
Forum
The CTWUG-WoW Forum is probably one of the biggest sources of critical information you will wind about the server. We are currently using the forum provided by CTWUG which works perfectly for our current needs, but we would prefer using the websites forum. As previously mentioned this is not currently possible.

IRC
The CTWUG-WoW IRC channel is the main communication portal between WoWers. Their are constantly CTWUG-WoWers communicating on the channel about mostly World of Warcraft related topics. Firstly, IRC (Internet Relay Client) is a chat interface were you can more than chat with other WoWers and Wuggers. The channel has a channel topic which is updated as required and provides server related information. It is used to display the status of the server and other events occurring within the World of Warcraft.
CTWUG-WoW Channel
The following steps should be followed to successfully communicate on the CTWUG-WoW IRC channel:
- Download an IRC client such as mIRC, HyrdraIRC etc.
- Conect to one of CTWUG's IRC server: CTWUG irc servers
- Join the CTWUG-WoW IRC channel by typing '/join #ctwug/bnet' in your IRC client.
WoWBot
The WoWBot functions similary to bottie in CTWUG's main channel #ctwug. The WoWBot is only available when the server is online which is a clear indication of the server status when the CTWUG-WoW channel topic hasn't been updated. The WoWBot also does not respond to a conversation so it does not help to start a conversation with it.
The WoWBot does respond to certain commands. To view these command type '-commands' in the CTWUG-WoW channel.Note: if a command is not preceeded by a -, the WoWBot will not respond.
