IRC Troubles.

the channel used by a number of shrapnel forum participants is #dominions on irc.gamesurge.net.

zen seems to have now unmoderated the channel, but obviously these sorts of actions are highly problematic.

has he fallen on hard times?

My guess is that Zen isn't doing it intentionally - he seemed to have a set of scripts that automatically did some strange things to the channel on entering, so it might have been an ircbot gone amiss.

no i don't think so. these were unique actions, like deoping sheap, and voicing us, and setting +m

he may well have just been drnka or some such though

everything seems fine and dandy at the moment

Do not be afraid. The channel is generally a friendly place, all are welcome, and troubles get resolved, one way or the other.

We even manage to get in a fair amount of Dominions 2 talk, conspire about turn-a-day games, and even play a few blitzes.

If you'd like to come on by, but aren't IRC savvy, drop me a PM and I'll try to help you get started.
