Awaynick? :)

But ye, I get your point but imo. Its just more convenient and the way I see it, I have the stuff to do it, so why not. Equally, I have the stuff needed to give them away free, why not? :)

    	    <description><![CDATA[I still never got the point of BNCs. If you're not there, why pretend to be there? The logging PM bit is sorta handy, but most messages I just get are "cycles, u there?" IRC is a form of communication where people expect to be able to communicate instantly (hence the 'I').

That said, I still run a BNC for myself. Hypocrit much? :D]]></description>

Ye, pretty much. I just set it to 500 lines when i make the accounts but you can change it to whatever you like in the admin panel. :)

<blockquote>It keeps only PM's afaik, no highlights on idled chanels, or maybe I'm wrong? Would love to have one - will contact you :)</blockquote>

It keeps as much previously said in a channel as you tell it to. Not just PM's. Thats the playback buffer Squeak was talking about. :)

Anyway, I have some bad news. It seems im going to have to wait a while to get trusted host status, might take up to a couple of days so I can't give out anymore BNC's till then. In the meantime, just idle in #skyridebncs and let me know via PM that you'd like a BNC and i'll set it up as soon as i get trusted host status. ;)]]></description>

It also keeps 400(it's changeable) lines of text from any channel you're idling on.]]></description>
