So after fully investigating and updating the logic for the logbot, I have resolved this. The bots will ALWAYS reconnect while logging is enabled. Had to basically modify the connection endpoint to be a Service instead of just a basic endpoint. (…

Thanks for bringing this up, I'll look into it as I recently changed some Markdown stuff.

Are you using any kind of geographical DNS settings?
Re: Channel log stopped after server restart

I updated the channel bot to hopefully fix the reconnect issues. /kill and Lines (G, K, Z) won't reconnect as its a clean /quit according to the bot. Ping timeouts and disconnects should reconnect.

The bots are currently not open source.
I had an idea of making the entire site/bots open source, but ended up having my design ripped off by another (now defunct) IRC indexing site, before doing so, and decided against it for now.

So I honestly have not programmed the ability to reconnect on disconnect. The bots using a twisted reconnect factory should reconnect but they don't. I am going to be adding that soon. A fix right now is to disable logging for all channels and re…
Thoughts on netsplit.de vs IRC Driven, and a small rant.
By: daniel on June 26, 2022, 7 p.m.
One thing that bothers me about netsplit.de is it is riddled with advertisements. Not just one or two, but I've seen pages riddled with numerous advertisements over their site. This site is basically trying to profit off YOUR networks. YOUR chann…
Network Admin check bot fixed
By: daniel on June 26, 2022, 1:05 a.m.
I noticed a bunch of failed network admin access checked and found the bot broke in a recent update. This has been resolved, you should be able to check and validate network access again. Let me know if there are any issues.
We now support SSL only networks!
By: daniel on June 21, 2022, 4:25 a.m.
I was given the challenge today to be able to index networks that only allow connections through SSL clients. I was able to get it fully implemented in the bots and website. Just another step of us becoming the most advanced IRC indexer on the pla…

Also, if you wish to have channel logging enabled to a network that is not admins, reach out to IRC Driven Staff, we will perform a manual verification of your channel status and grant you channel admin access.
Channel Logging Bot is live!

This one took a long time to write and perfect. But I am pleased to announce that the IRC Driven Channel Logging Bot is now live!
What is this? You can enable Channel Logging for a channel that will display in realtime on the channel page of a w…
Networks of the past
By: daniel on June 19, 2022, 6:11 a.m.
I wanted to start a topic to pay tributes to networks that existed back in the day but don't anymore.
RIP DeepSpace IRC Network.
They were the first network I ever linked with, used to be at deepspace.org. They specialized in supporting IRC for di…
