Channel Bot Temporarily Down

By: daniel on Jan. 6, 2024, 5:13 p.m.

I am working on some major pushes and had to take down the channelbot. It hopefully won't be too long. I apologize for it. While you're waiting, check out some of the new stuff around the site.

Email errors fixed

By: daniel on Oct. 10, 2023, 3:25 p.m.

I've been pretty busy with life lately, but I was able to fix the issue with emails not working. This was mainly due to a change in my email host and a few other settings.

If you still have issues please let me know.

Downtime

By: daniel on July 30, 2023, 3:35 p.m.

We had about a week of downtime because Google Domains decided to try and verify my email the one day I was doing email server maintenance in years, and suspended ALL of my domains including the ones I used for my email. I transferred my domains to…

Your network was disabled for awhile because of connection errors. I've got it re-enabled.

Re: Channel Bot Discussion

This is strange because it should /quit when no channels are left. There are 2 ways to remove the bot from the channel, kick it, or disable it. I need to test the kicking feature as it may be inconsistent. If there was perhaps an issue with the w…

I could not find a solution yet. However, it looks like you're network doesn't have this channel anymore.

Quotes / Download Pages [RESOLVED]

By: daniel on Nov. 23, 2022, 11:07 p.m.

I am posting this to state I know the Quotes and Downloads page are not working currently. This is due to an issue with the Django Vote app that I am currently working with the app developer on with.

I pushed a major update to the website.

Can you see if this still happens?

Channel Logging Bot => Channel Bot

By: daniel on Nov. 23, 2022, 11:03 p.m.

I have pushed a lot of changes to the website, but the most notable change is the Channel Logging Bot is now a more featureful bot.

You can also (as network admins) name the bot a custom name and identify it to NickServ. You must do this before co…

Re: Only one server being seen/used.

By: daniel on Nov. 23, 2022, 7:27 p.m.

I will check what I can about the bot, but I am limited to what the IRC servers are willing to give me.

EDIT:

That's really strange. I did switch to a new Markdown editor, I've been making a lot of design changes so I'll investigate this as well.

Awesome find, looks like I need more sanitation checks. I'll get that fixed ASAP.

Today's "Did you know?" segment

By: daniel on Sept. 1, 2022, 3:15 p.m.

So I wanted to bring a few features we have that are not used a lot you may like for your network.

Remote Server Indexing

If your network supports remote commands, such as /lusers server.network.tld, /motd server.network.tld, etc then you can enab…

Re: Only one server being seen/used.

By: daniel on Aug. 30, 2022, 2:53 p.m.

So my bots use simple DNS to connect.

There is another option though. If your network supports remote commands to servers, you can enable that in your network settings and then on the server page manually add servers.

This will cause the indexer …
