So you can retrieve the correct channel name back later, for example:

My method:

Post: (mIRC) #w#e#i#r#d#c#h#a#n#n#e#l# -> (DB) ,w,e,i,r,d,c,h,a,n,n,e,l,
Retrieve: (DB) ,w,e,i,r,d,c,h,a,n,n,e,l, -> (mIRC) #w#e#i#r#d#c#h#a#n#n#e#l#

Your method:

Post: (mIRC) #w#e#i#r#d#c#h#a#n#n#e#l# -> (DB) weirdchannel
Retrieve: (DB) weirdchannel -> (mIRC) weirdchannel
