IRC - Anyone still use it?

[front243]

I was a bit curious about IRC since that was what I started filesharing many years ago. But forums like this doesn't have an IRC section. I wonder why its not more popular?

Are there any forums similar to filesharingtalk you can recommend where IRC is discussed?

[DyNast]

IRC section? you mean an IRC channel or a place where you discuss about IRC (discuss about IRC? o_O what do you have to discuss about)

[rotem1984]

U can dl via mirc too dynast
www.packetnews.com

[tusks]

Yeah, I agree it would be nice if we had a list of good channels with lots of bots to download from. For me it would be more valuable than a Kazaa section :P

[DefX]

Yeah, I agree it would be nice if we had a list of good channels with lots of bots to download from. For me it would be more valuable than a Kazaa section :P

That would be a nice idea in a perfect world, but the reality are long queues and servers not always working.

IRC though is still a very ideal place to leech your mp3s.

[nanotek]

not true at all

i can dl films at full speed anytime without any queues

you just need to find the right channel

[typeoholic]

IRC owns. You just have to know where to look is all.

[tusks]

Yeah, I have the problem that DefX says all the time when I try to download from the popular channels. It's always waiting in a huge queue or the bot goes offline in the middle of my download :/

That's why we need a list of the less common channels that not everyone knows about :D

[ZeroTolerance]

ok im stuck what websites do you go to look for channels because packetnews is full of spyware and freezes my computer

[Blackbeard]

i would say bittorrents and irc is my life heh, i don't use irc to download off of i use it mainy to chat on.

[BrownWren]

I started on IRC many moons ago. But recently moved to totally Bittorrents and use IRC just for chatting and helping folks to use the bittorrents

[Cabalo]

stopped using IRC back in 1996. my friends have me on msn.

[t0mmy]

all the time, got lots of mates on irc :]
www.xdccing.com also another good source to dl off irc

[rocky1234]

I Love IRC. You can get lot of stuff & knowledge there. Best to meet people whom u cannot find on any other chat site.

Ever heard of sharing?

That would be a no, I take it...:unsure:

[Zelucifer]

Not as into it as I used to be, but IRC is still great for anime releases.

[HyperNode]

I think you people are all confused with FServs with iRC. But yes people runs FServ on iRN I know this very well as I run it myself. Depending on the network and channel you can always find bots hosting all kind of things. Nothing compares to DCC other than well sourced files on file swarming network.

[Cruel]

IRC is a greatway to be a part of the community to get closer to other and share ideas and thoughts that are not expressed in the forum.

It can also be faster for requesting help or helping someone else rather then a forum.

The trackers I'm in woruldn't be the same without IRC :)

[burtz]

yep! still using it for chat and DCC. :)

[grimms]

Yea i'm learning how to use mIRC. Don't really get it too much yet, but everyone seems to love it.

[t0mmy]

and also dont forget people who idle trackers irc channels :D

[DanielleD87]

irc holds either the center or some part of all types of warez. if you're serious about piracy then knowing everything about irc is a must.

top sites use irc more than just about anything ;)

[grimms]

Still Learning how to use mIRC. Still don't understand it all.

[Something Else]

I use them fairly often but I would prefer not to. They are sometimes necessary and often useful.

[bornwithnoname]

I never got into irc. The one time I tried it it didn't work right and I never went back.

[bonard_52]

I don't use irc 2 years ago.

[sscape]

I just idle on channels.

[RCR]

I still use IRC alot.:D
