Our IRC Network runs current and full featured IRC software: InspIRCd 3, Anope 2.0, and PyLink. InspIRCd 3 features a lot of new IRCv3 standards along with the vast amount of modes and commands that InspIRCd is known for. Anope 2.0 is a robust IRC services package, providing simple user account (nicknames), channel management, memo system, and personalized vHosts. PyLink is also an IRC services package which we primarily use for channel linking/relaying (Janus replacement).
Network Topology
- Multiple client servers located around the globe.
- A hub server for all servers to connect to; keeping latency low between each server.
- All servers are securely linked.
InspIRCd
- Secure client connections on port 6697 and plain-text client connections on port 6667.
- Automatic host cloaking enabled so your IP address/hostmask is not revealed to everyone on IRC.
- Most modules loaded providing many user and channel modes for spam/flood protection or general usage.
- Supported IRCv3 specifications:
Anope
- NickServ
- Account based registration with up to 8 nicknames under one account.
- A valid email address is required for verification and password reset purposes.
- One year of inactivity allowed on each nickname; account remains until the last nickname expires (or is dropped).
- SASL Authentication methods PLAIN and EXTERNAL are available.
