I made a custom channel for my dungeon group earlier but some player still had issues randomly disconnecting from it after zoning.
It’s better than nothing though and making custom channel for your dungeon group does afford a level of privacy.
As for IRC outages, as far as I understand after a cursory search IRC servers can be ran on your own infrastructure, so it should still be on Funcome’s server hardware. “outage maps” that I found with “irc outage” query are both wildly outdated and not connected to IRC protocol. I’m not entirely sure if the expression “irc outage” even makes sense. I would be grateful for any links that could provide clarification.
P.S. I support creation of #LFG channel to supplement broken chat, but on the other hand we already have Sanctuary that serves that purpose and it’s population leaves somewhat to be desired.
