My right? You are claiming I don't have the right to voice my opinions? If that is true, what right do you have to post your opinions about my post?
And who said I don't know about IRC Unity, I'm very familiar with it. IMHO it is doomed to fail. I've seen about 6 such projects come and go. Why? Because no one is in it for "the good of IRC" they are in it for "the good of MyIRCNet" If all the other networks died, they wouldn't care, it would mean their network gets bigger, which is exactly what they want. Everyone in such groups has a 100% biased opinion on everything. And you can deny that all you want, but EVERY small network I know of was incredibly happy when DALnet was having all their major problems, why? Because DALnet doing bad = smaller nets doing good. The users left DALnet to find more stable locations to chat. I didn't hear any of the small network admins telling these channels to leave, that the users should be on DALnet, or anyone even expressing any kind of emotion other than joy that DALnet was doing bad. Sure some people may have said "it's a shame" but they didn't keep that opinion when their user count jumped from 50 to 500 in 2-3 days. The small networks were also very excited when DALnet banned warez, because that meant the warez people needed somewhere else to go, so they hoped some of them were going to go to the small networks.
As for the Fizzer Task Force, when it first started it was a bunch of people who wanted to stop fizzer, a good cause imho. Then it turned into some "official group." But the best part about this was when I visited their site one day and saw a super-lame animated gif logo saying "Fizzer" That was incredibly funny to me. Why? When you hear Something Task Force, you think of something like an official goverment agency. You don't think of a bunch of guys with an animated "spray paint" logo. Yeah that makes them really look like they know what they are talking about.
As for the IFIRC, "International Federation" implies a group of MANY people from MANY nations. When I went to their "about" page it listed 7 nicks two of which were from the same country (and I assume more were as well), does that sound like an International Federation to you?
Now for your comments on Unreal, which again, if I didn't have a right to comment about these websites, why do you have a right to comment about my software? But in any case, when did 1% CPU get declared 'high'? Your right, Unreal is instable, just like something that is inflammable is prone to catching fire. If UnrealIRCd is such a wasteful and unstable program, why does ICQ/AOL use it for their IRC server? I'll tell you exactly why, those "vanity features" are the kinds of things they want. When you want a chatroom that is appropriate for all ages, things like +G (swear filtering) are a great tool to have. And guess what? Bahamut doesn't have it.
Also if Unreal is a program "plenty of people laugh at", why would we have formerly had someone who codes EFNet's IRCd, Hybrid, working on Unreal? I personally have very friendly relations with the coders of many IRCds, PTLink, Hybrid, IRCU, IRCNet, etc. None of those people ever declared Unreal to be laughable. In fact, coders of IRCds have help with Unreal. We have had patches submitted by Bahamut coders, long discussions with Hybrid and IRCU coders, and cooperation with IRCNet coders. If we are so laughable, why would they want anything to do with us?
Furthermore, I never saw anyone here say "would someone please give me the link to a fizzer killing program", Mr. c0ldfusi0n took the liberty to post the link without anyone asking for it, or expressing a need for it, i.e. unsolicited. Therefore in my book it was no different than your everyday spam.
