Synful hi, as you know, we caught up with each other in the channel

However, I'm starting to see why some people are a bit lukewarm about the IRC channel. The minute I mentioned AO someone (presumably a server op) "killed" me It doesn't sound very AntiOnline friendly .... and frankly I cba with all that rather childish kick/ban stuff.

It's very easy to kick someone out of a channel you op or (in the case of a kill) admin, but it's much harder persuading people to hang out there. Normal users have more power than they realise because they can vote with their feet. And I'm afraid I have better things to do than continue rejoining channels when there are so many more of them!
