I don't find it necessary, FreeQuest works fine just like it is. IRC servers cost money right? So use the money for something more useful, like the DOX FTP server !

Naw, we could run it from one of our existing servers. No problem there.

I don't really care because I mostly use the forums rather than IRC. However, it makes sense to have our own IRC server, so that TB Admins/Mods are in control. It's also nice to have a little privacy.

I think nick registration is a good thing on any server. See how you like it when someone uses your nick to raise hell in #tb, and you get a ban...
not really, not point in it actually aside for the neat little "torrentbytes" instead of the "freequest"
big whoop

if you could set it up like oink has it set up that would be even better. i can't even get onto feeequest irc. sumthin about registering and i read the stickyon it,but i ended up giving it up since i could just easily go onto oink's irc.

To set up and run an IRC server is fast and easy And since IRC doesn't consume any bandwith to speek of there is no harm in putting one up Announcers and other fun stuff like pollbots, triviabots and so on just to name a few.
the sky is the limit when it comes to IRC and bots
damn, it's good to be the king

I don't like the idea, i mean when the servers are down when nforce-network is unreachable - no IRC.
It's much better to go with a "real" distributed IRC network like Freequest.
