not happy with zirc
lots of connection problems lately
and today got banned from because of connection flood while just using normal settings

well,
I too am not in favour of rizon.
And as notoriously slow as we are when it comes to IRC network changes, I don't think it's likely that we'll get everybody to agree to a move until the current network dies completely :P
Though if we'd find two people who'd be willing to provide us with access to servers where we can run our own irc network, that might be an interesting solution.
BYe!

If there's only about 50 people at most on the server, I've got a private server that I could convince the admin to let us use.exp wrote:well,

well,
server load and traffic would be very low for an anidb irc network.
The key point is that not all ISPs allow the hosting of irc servers.
And we'd also need shell access to the servers in order to install and administrate the irc server apps.
We'd probably offer an SSL encrypted port too, but most of our users would not use that, so the additional CPU load should be minimal.
So basically the requirements come down to:
- hosting ISP allows irc servers on their network
- linux server
- we can get ssh shell access as a normal user (root not needed)
- server needs at least one IP with an unused irc default port (6667 TCP)
- we need two servers
- it should be a long time arrangement and servers should have relatively high availability
All in all it might not be that easy to find two such servers after all :P

Why bother with our own server when we can use the already existing ones? That means extra servers, extra maintenance and less users that connect to it, unless you want less users...
And I don't see how being on rizon would make us any more affiliated with fansubs than we already are, indexing them and all their files...
