This is probably the lamest idea I've ever heard. I can understand not wanting to have MS Chat clients because of the garbage they tend to generate, but why mIRC? There's nothing wrong with it really. And why do you have such a problem with Windows users wanting to learn Linux?

<rant> and why shouldn't windows users idle in a linux chan? take me for example, I have 2 win2k boxes, a 1 linux, 1 freebsd, and soon 1 solaris. When I irc, I always use mirc because I want a gui client, and I hate xchat. However, just cos I happen to be ircing from a winbox, doesn't mean I don't have knowledge about linux. </rant>

That is so lame, you also know that all unices is still server os? (excluding BeOS and MacOS X?) I irc trouh one of my shellservers, but still I'm using Windows. Kick me to?
The reson they use mirc is that they don't own servers themself as I do. Everybody is not that lucky as me to own great servers with lots of cool reverse hosts, and they want to use mIRC. I belive mIRC is a damn good IRC client, and if mIRC hadn't exists - you might not be on IRC today. Epic/bitchx/whatever didn't make IRC to the public service it is today.

/me agrees.
Infact, People from India, atleast a 90% of them did'nt know what IRC wuz, untill they started seeing a small Icon on the desktop of cyber café computers that read 'mIRC32'

mIRC is the best for windows if you'd say BitchX is good for *nix. Everyone has their own opinion.

And extricating mIRC users from his chan is nothing bad as you guys are portraying it. If gpdza sez that MS chat is banned cuz of its weird outputs, the MS chat users wud say 'no way! its lovely' cuz they use it, and they use it cuz they love it.

People have different opinions about most of the things, just cuz you are leet doesnt mean everyone else is, and shud think just the way you do.

I hope i get my point across. :smile:

1. If you mind about idlers have a bot to kick them if they idle for more than an hour...or something like that.
2. I should suppose you havent used windows and mirc before, not even while you were trying to learn linux eh?
3. I agree with the other posts....We have many systems including windows..and its our freedom to choose what client to use..
4. Linux clients never idle?

manual i hav nothing against idlers it was about mirc32, and i never joined a linux chan with mirc32 because i would feel stupid if i did. and i got a windows system too but never use mIRC not even if my linuxbox is down i rather wait to its up again :razz: thats my opinion, and i take the "freedom to not use mIRC.
