A better place is a place where every user can chat freely without being harassed by spammers, without being insulted by idiots, without being banned from their own channel by people who use warscripts. That is what "good" and "safe" and "normal" IRC is, regardless of whether you want it to be such.
I used to own a channel with a 100 ppl on avaerage there, and I never was taken over.. i'm sorry, but if a person's channel gets taken over that they own, its their own fault. If you couldnt do something as simple as /chanserv identify <chan> <pass> or /chanserv access <chan> add <name> <protected_level>, then you need to learn from your mistakes. Even just mkaing a 1 line script
on 1:JOIN:#channel_i_own: /chanserv identify <chan> <pass>
thats like having a car, leaving the key in the ignition, and being a distance away. Its your fault u didnt take the initiative to secure your car. Now dont get me wrong, the one who stole the car is still at fault, but your the one that basically handed it over.
