Network Information

This page was originally written by Syber.  Last modified 2010-04-28 at 2:16 PM ET by Darc.

Our network currently has 4 servers. Each server, along with its according staff is listed below. Any problems with individual servers may be reported to one of it's IRC Operators, or the admin. Optionally, any issues with any server may also be reported to a Network Administrator (Syber or Darc). All servers can be reached through our DNS pool at irc.tzirc.com.

We run Unreal IRCd Unreal 3.2.8.1 (Documentation Here) with Anope IRC Services 1.8.4, including OperServ, NickServ, ChanServ, HostServ, MemoServ, and BotServ. We encourage all users to register at least their nickname with our services, in order to prevent any identity theft. If you need help with this, please join #help.

If you're new to the whole IRC deal, here's the idea. We run the servers, you need a client to connect to it. Download mIRC here, and when she opens up, type /server irc.tzirc.com in the status window, and wait for it to connect. I won't get into details here, but an excellent F.A.Q. can be found at http://www.mirc.com/irc.html.

Once you connect, /join #thezone. A new window will open in your IRC client, and you should be ok from there.

Some channels you may want to keep in mind are #help and #services. If you need general help, join #help. If you have services questions, there you go. Honestly, nobody talks here, and I don't care where you ask. The channels are just set up because a lot of networks have them, and people are used to joining them.

You can get a list of all the available channels by typing "/list". Feel free to join as many channels as you are interested in, as well as form your own channels, and invite you're friends.

Aside from that, I don't have a user, oper, or server policy up yet. So let me just sum it up for everyone. DO NOT FUCK AROUND. If you're causing problems, we will remove you. None of that bitchy "the opers stay out of channel affairs" bullshit. I'm not going to be in your kool-aide, but if somebody comes looking for me, somebody's getting killed. One way or another. I, and the other server and network operators will be all up in your Lane Bryants if shit hits the fan.

Servers: If you want to link, talk to me (Syber) or Darc. You follow our rules, and it's a trial for a month. After that, we'll decide if we want to keep the link. While it's a trial, your opers are local, not global. Also, your shell has to be an account on T1 or better connection. None of that oh-I'm-cipher-and-my-ircd-runs-on-my-28.8-modem-in-my-basement.
