The bots are on vacation until further notice. They where very tired:) War with the IRC community is not on our agenda. On the contrary we set out with a goal, a mission to serve the IRC community and to help it evolve. We respect your needs and are working with some of you to accommodate your requests. We are confident that our discussions with the Networks will be fruitful and that we when were launch shortly after the problems that you brought are accommodated for. We suggest that you look at enow as a opportunity to evolve the world of IRC. Look beyond the technical annoyances that may currently obscure the large picture, the vision of creating a searchable dynamic space, where people can connect and find topics of discussion as they evolve, contribute to them and add to the totality of the cyber space we roam. As opposed to the many other companies that have abused the IRC community and are spamming and monitoring it, we set out to create a service for the community. To make it the most advanced chat network on the planet. More robust than the commercial networks, on the forefront as it should be, being the creator of the space to begin with. Change is always difficult. Consensus is hard to achieve. This is a process and obviously our system as it is today is a nuisance to you folks. We are confident that we will find a way, with you, to make it work for you.
