Probably the same as .ws claims it stands for "WorldSite" while it really is Samoa ( Western Samoa )

The machines hosting irc.he.net and ircd.he.net have had several hardware failures lately. The admins have decided to rebuild the servers, so they won't be back for at least a few days.

EFnet global voting approved new channel mode +e and +I to be globally implemented. Channel mode +e stands for ban exception, which makes certain user!identd@host exempt from the banlists in a channel. Channel mode +I allows you to set a invite exception on user!identd@host so you dont need a bot to...

After being juped for about 20 minutes, irc.mindspring.com is allowed to relink the network, this time with a new admin. Avleen is a earthlink/mindspring employee and has agreed to take over the adminship of the server.

irc.mindspring.come has run on auto pilot the last week after nereka, the old mindspring admin informed admins that he was no longer a employee at earthlink/mindspring. Some inquirys were made to find a replacement, but, as one hasn't been found yet at earthlink/mindspring, the server has been juped...

vBulletin is still the best though for large forums, such as this one. It just sucks that it costs to register. I'm sure someone here could take care of something like that though. The speed subjects are added here i doubt it will be as big as it once were. Looks like we are running out of issues t...

For the record, i hate your signature and will try to find a way to block pictures in signatures

Yes, that would be the totally ignorant way to do it. Much better just to force your own changes thru by starting to use it on a production network instead of actually calling a global vote on it and see if the majority agrees. </sarcasm> 8) You totally missed my point being that as long as hubs su...

what did happen to the old efnet.org ? why was it down for so long ? Several reasons. First we had a hudge DDoS attack so the isp blocked the two servers we had ( one for html and another one for the databases ). After a while ( 3 weeks ) the server hosting html was up while the database server was...
