I'm not very familiar with the inner workings of IRC so I would rather leave it to someone who is. I have no preference in different servers or anything like that due to that lack of knowledge. If anyone is familiar with setting up an IRC and would be willing to guide, set it up, give insight on setting one up one on Hubski.com, DM us and we can discuss further. Again, I have no idea what it takes. As TNG said, we've discussed having our own IRC but it hadn't made the high priority list nor are any of us familiar with setting it up.
I just commented elsewhere in the thread, but guys, there's really no reason to waste your limited time and brainpower on setting up a private IRC network when there are a ton of free well-known alternatives. Maybe someday. thenewgreen
