The Unofficial Destructoid IRC has moved to Quakenet photo

Our little community-run IRC channel has been active since 2007, and some years ago we moved from some server I don't even remember to Dynastynet. However, Dynastynet has been having some serious connections issues the past few weeks, so we have now moved #destructoid to Quakenet.

It will probably take some time to get everything back up and running like it was before, so please bear with us. You can use the following info to connect through the client of your choice, or use Quakenet's webirc instead. If you are new to IRC, check out the now slightly outdated IRC guide

Server: irc.quakenet.org (port 6667)
Channel: #destructoid

One downside of Quakenet is that some usernames may already be in use -- although nicks can't be registered on Quakenet -- and registering yourself on Quakenet works a little bit different. Just hop into the channel and ask if you need any help.

I am executively naming Jonathan Ross a.k.a. Aerox as the new Grand Über Op Wizard Dragonborn, with bloodylip as second in command. Jake Clarke a.k.a. Hammertiem has been instrumental in moving the channel and setting up things these last few days, and is hereby knighted Ser Botmaster as a reward. theGoldenAvatar a.k.a. tGA will share those technical responsibilities with him for his contributions with DtoidBot, and you may refer to him as Lord Sansa Tarly henceforth.

See you guys there!

Thanks for having that header, Maurice. My girlfriend was telling me to get off the computer, but then she saw that picture and now she's hemorrhaging or something.

We have a small but pretty consistent community with some people that drop in and out over the years. It can depend on the timezone and time whether it's very active, but if you just want to waste some time and talk about any kind of geekery stuff, you're welcome there.

Aurvant can be our Ser Neverright!
