    i only use dalnet for trolling(username gUrlkink04), most people here would use quakenet id imagine, and the beautifully active #unix.ie channel

    The busiest linuxy irish channel is likely #linux on irc.linux.ie, which runs on the linux.ie webserver.

    I didn't know that it was that difficult to get into an IRC channel Michele...

    It isn't normally :)

    I kept on getting on undernete about the channel mode, however it let me connect this morning without any problems.

    Sometimes we find it necessary to set mode +r on the channel - it's fairly high profile and a target for flooders and spambots. +r means that only users authenticated to the X services bot can join - or you can request a /invite from an op if there's one awake. X accounts are available to all who apply at http://cservice.undernet.org/live/. As an added bonus, when you're authenticated (/msg x@channels.undernet.org login bknight bknightspass) you can set mode +x on yourself. That hides your real host and you'd become someone@bknight.users.undernet.org
