Well, the perception with a room that won't reply to a greeting is often that
they are too snobbish or cliqueish to talk to new people. Eu doesn't need
that. And since Sorcery has channel and nick services, you don't *need*
people connected all the time to hold channel ownership, altho you can if
you want. Just watch the clones of BeZeLBuB and scooby, 2 isn't a problem,
but if the channel policy is to keep idle ops there, don't make them all from
the same address, excessive cloning is raises hackles, uses bandwidth, and
consumes available ports. I know, it doesn't sound like a big deal, but nebula
is limited to 300 users now because of bandwidth used by clones in the
past, so fallout matters, bandwidth costs real money.

Valinor has quite a few good reference pages. The owner is a published book
author, and was in on the development of XML standards, and still is quite
active in web standards. I've known him online for 3 years or so. He once
owned a server on dalnet.
Many irc ops on SN were opers on dalnet, and left to form a better and more
stable net. That being said, Nexus is being upgraded today with new
hardware, to try to offset some bad transatlantic connections.

I was playing! I know you meant version.

Ok, if you need more help, just ask. Tiggr is on 24-7, and i am on at least 2
hrs a day, often more,, like 10hrs/day in winter (much less in summer).
