EpicIRC Features

EpicIRC is proud to announce its new features which make IRC safer and easier than ever.

Our entire network allows SSL connections on port 6660. This ensures secure chatting in channels, and Chanmode +x will only allow users connected via SSL to access a channel, greatly increasing its security.

Our services allow for quick and free registration of nicks and channels. Never worry if your nick will be available on the server again! All you have to do is register your nick and it will always be yours! Link multiple nicks together, great for away nicks, to ensure that you always receive your ops, and that you only have to enter your password once. Use "/msg NickServ LINK <othernick>" to set this up!

Our network runs an Open Proxy Scanner on all connections. This ensures that people aren't maliciously logging into our network claiming to be a host other than what they really are. If you notice activity from one of our server´s port scanning you on connect please just ignore it. Many IRC networks Proxy Scan for security.

EpicIRC is proud to announce its new Redundant Hub System. This system should ensure that all servers remain linked to the network in the event that one of our network hubs goes offline. The system should then automatically re-connect to our backup server, restoring the network.

Prevent Channel Takeovers! Our Services system can prevent this from ever occurring. All it takes is registering your channel, and ChanServ will protect you and, among other things, will always prevent the channel founder from being kicked from the channel.
