That's another point I wanted to bring up, having been to the channel myself.

Typically, the more recognized #mIRC channels are fairly strict about the questiones that are asked. Most of them live by this simple motto, paraphrasing...

"We only help with the legal and non-disruptive use of mIRC and the IRC protocol."

Granted, people sometimes ask and answer non-mIRC/IRC questions, but will not assist users with warez, mp3s, games, cracks, fservers and other conceivably illegal downloading, etc... anything that might suggest that #mIRC ops condone illegal activities. (mind you, porn isn't illegal wink)

Looking closer at the network's policies, it appears they made it impossible to register #mIRC to prevent responsibility for creating such a negative image for authors like Khaled. By Khaled granting you permission to register this channel, he would be directly responsible for any of your channel's ill-doings.

However, I still suggest emailing him directly rather than waiting for a reply to this thread.

Well. At least I won lunch.
Good philosophy, see good in bad, I like!
