To join a channel on Battle.net, click on the Channel button in your Battle.net interface. Select a channel from the list, or manually type in the desired channel name in the area provided, and click OK. You will then be placed in the designated channel.
As an alternative to the Channel button, the /join command may be used to quickly join a desired channel. Usage: /join [channel name] Example: '/join MyChannel'
Note that the terms 'join' and 'create' may often be used interchangeably when referring to battle.net chat channels. If a channel is empty when you enter it, then you are 'creating' the channel - if it already has players when you enter it, then you are 'joining' the channel.

There are a few different types of chat channels on Battle.net, each with its own set of rules and characteristics:

Battle Net Maintenance Starcraft 2000

Public channels - certain channel names will be designated by battle.net as Public. Public channels contain no Operator*, and will filter profanity out of non-whispered messages. Go here for the basic list of Public channels

Notice that some of the channels on that list are designated as having 'root' channel names. Players may use root channel names to create their own public channels. To create a Public Channel, name the channel using a root channel name, then append to the channel name any desired word.
Examples:
Blizzard Chat Test
War2BNE Zoned
StarCraft Big-rumble
Private channels - any created channel that is not designated by Battle.net as Public will be a Private channel. Private channels do not filter profanity out of messages.
Clan channels - Clan channels are specialized Private channels. Each Clan channel has a specific Clan Operator. The Clan Operator will always gain Operator status when he enters his Clan channel, and no other account can become Operator unless the channel's current Operator designates him. If a channel's Clan Operator leaves his channel without designating someone, then the channel will have no Operator until the Clan Operator returns. We wanted to draw a distinction between the user-operated channels available in our previous games and the more robust Clan Channel system that has been implemented in Warcraft III. For this reason, we have changed the terminology of these channels. User-operated channels that were previously known as 'clan channels' have remained unchanged in functionality, but are now more accurately referred to as User Operated or Op channels. Op Channels are available to users of StarCraft, Brood War, Diablo II, Lord of Destruction, and Warcraft II: BNE.
Warcraft III: The Reign of Chaos and Warcraft III: The Frozen Throne Clans:
Members of a Clan will automatically be placed in their Clan channel when they enter chat. For instructions on creating your own Clan, go here.

If you wish to join a specific clan channel, simply type '/join clan ' at the Battle.net prompt (do not use the quotes and use the Clan name). The clan leader can set restrictions on their channel and he or she may block users who are not members of the clan.

For example: Warblade wants to join a Clan channel for the Blizzard Clan. To do this, he types at the Battle.net prompt: /join Clan Blizzard

Starcraft 2

Diablo II, Diablo II: Lord of Destruction, StarCraft, StarCraft: Brood War, and Warcraft II Battle.net Edition Op Channels:
For the games listed above, Op channels can only be made where the OP channel name is the same as the account name of the creator. To create your Op channel, simply type '/join op ' at the Battle.net prompt. The word 'op' before your account name indicates you are creating a user operated Op channel where you will be the channel operator.
If you wish to join a specific Op channel, simply type '/join op ' at the Battle.net prompt (do not use the quotes and use the Op name).
For example: Warblade wants to create an Op channel where he was the Operator. To do this, he types at the battle.net prompt: /join op Warblade
An Operator may designate an additional Operator for the channel by using the /designate chat command on the desired account then reentering the channel. The designate will become a temporary Operator in the channel for as long as he or she remains in the channel.
*Operator: the Operator in a channel as the power to kick others from the channel, or to kick them and ban them from reentering. An account banned from a channel by an Operator will remain banned as long as the Operator remains in the channel. Operator-only commands may be found on the battle.net chat command page.
Channel RestrictionsDiablo: Diablo Clients can only join Diablo Channels, Open Tech Support and Blizzard Tech Support. Diablo clients cannot create or join Private channels.

Diablo and StarCraft Shareware: Shareware Clients can only join Shareware Channels, Open Tech Support and Blizzard Tech Support. Shareware clients cannot create or join Private channels.

Diablo II: Diablo II Clients can only connect to Diablo II channels on their Realm. They cannot join the Diablo II Channels of other Realms.

Battlenet Maintenance Starcraft 2018

Anime voice changer. A number of Blizzard games and the Battlenet server is currently down for servicing.

Blizzard announced via Twitter that Battlenet, WoW, Hearthstone, Diablo 3, and Starcraft 2 are 'undergoing maintenance,' and 'character services' are currently offline.

The games and Battlenet were down since 6:00 a.m. EDT (3:00 a.m. PDT), and are set to be back online at 2:00 EDT (11:00 PDT).

The news will probably not be greeted well by those who pre-ordered or purchased Diablo III: Reaper of Souls Ultimate Evil Edition, which launches for the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox One, and Xbox 360 today.

Check back for updates.

A Closer Look: Do More With Companion Devices

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Apple has ways of encouraging you to buy more of its products: It offers bonus features on devices like the iPhone and iPad that work only when paired with other Apple gadgets.

Maintenance

Amazon does it, too.

It's understandable. The devices need to communicate with each other at a deep level, and that's more easily done when a company controls the software on both ends. And these features are more like extras and don't affect the products' basic functionality.

Take streaming TV devices, for example: These gadgets cost about $100 and let you watch Netflix, Hulu and other online services on a big-screen TV. Though you don't need any other device for basic streaming, some advanced features in Amazon's Fire TV require a Kindle Fire tablet or a Fire phone, while some Apple TV features work only with iPhones, iPads and Mac computers.

As a result, you're wise to consider the devices you already own when you buy a new gadget, as these devices become more powerful when combined. Here's a closer look at how the Apple TV and the Fire TV work with other gadgets from Apple and Amazon.

— AMAZON FIRE TV

With a Fire phone or tablet, you can start a movie or TV show on one device and continue on another, at least when you're using the company's own streaming service, Amazon Instant Video. When watching on the TV, you can have the phone or tablet display trivia, cast information and character summaries — culled from IMDb and other sources. Information on the mobile device changes from scene to scene.

Consider these scenarios:

— You're near the end of a movie on the Fire TV at home, but need to head out. Just pull down the Fire phone's notification center and switch the movie to the phone. You won't miss a scene. It works the other way if you start on the phone on the way home.

— An actor seems familiar, but you can't remember his name or what else he's been in. With video playing on the Fire TV, check the phone or tablet to see headshots of actors in a given scene. Tap a headshot for more information. The feature also works with songs playing during certain scenes — and you can buy the song through Amazon, of course.

— You can also use the phone or tablet to pause, rewind, forward or go directly to a specific scene on the TV. Or you can check Facebook and email on the device once you've had your fill of cast information.

What about streaming services beyond Amazon's? By turning on a screen-mirroring function, anything appearing on the phone or tablet will appear on the TV. You have to dig through the settings on the phone or tablet to turn it on, though. Beyond video, I had a lot of fun pointing the phone's camera at my cousins' kids so they could see themselves on the TV live.

Unfortunately, audio and lips had a tendency to be out of sync when I mirrored using my home Wi-Fi network. It's better to work with an app that directly supports dual-screen use. Only Amazon Instant Video does so for now, though Amazon says it's working with selected partners to expand that.

— APPLE TV

You can start video on an iPhone or an iPad and continue on the TV using a feature called AirPlay. You're not limited to Apple's own iTunes service, so this is a way to get Amazon Instant Video on the big screen.

However, services have the option to disable this capability. Showtime and ABC Family, for instance, have done this. Their apps lack the AirPlay button and aren't available on the Apple TV.

Apple doesn't offer supplementary information on cast and characters, as Amazon does. And while you can start something on a phone or tablet, switch to the TV and switch back, this doesn't work if you start the video on the TV. Amazon's devices work both ways.

Apple does offer screen mirroring, and it's easier to get to than Amazon's version. Just swipe up from the bottom for the Control Center. It's not true screen mirroring, as video disappears from the mobile device when it shows up on the TV. This actually improves video quality because you're not wasting Internet bandwidth duplicating the stream on a device you're not watching.

You can also do screen mirroring from a Mac or use the Apple TV as a second monitor to extend your Mac's desktop space. But it doesn't always work well if your Wi-Fi network isn't pristine.

Unfortunately, mirroring is sometimes blocked for copyright reasons. I'm not able to fling DVDs from the Mac to the Apple TV, for instance. In trying to fling Showtime and ABC Family from the phone or tablet, I can get only audio on the TV. I haven't run into that with any of the video apps I've tried on the Fire.

Beyond streaming TV, Apple devices will soon work together even more extensively. The upcoming Yosemite operating system for the Mac and iOS 8 for iPhones and iPads will have a set of features called Continuity. You can start an e-mail on one device and finish on another. Or you can answer phone calls on the Mac. Stay tuned.
