Many Globulation2 users and developers socialise in the official Globulation2 'Game' Channel (#glob2), here you chat to other Glob2 fans and developers and find out whats happening with your favourite (we hope) game. You may be also able to find yourself some opposition for an online game using Ysagoon Online Gaming.

Globulation2 developers also run a Globulation2 Development Channel (#glob2-dev) where the development cycle and additions are commonly discussed.
