This discussion is useless ;b
First of all, you're talking about a thing that you know nothing about
learn a little more about vchans and then talk about what's good or wrong
next, the fact you don't like them doesn't make them useless, neither you're the person who decides whether they will be supported in mIRC or not
third, try to accept other people viewpoints
for example go to efnet and take a nice look around ;b
ppl who run this network share those ideas - nicknames and channels are NOT OWNED
and last, save your sarcasm and irony for yourself
words like "serious psychological treatment" might cause you many problems
as far as the control of channel is concernded - can you imagine thet out there perhaps 100 000 chatters have their own small channels where they meet their friends?
how nice will it be to find out one day that the channel is taken by some jerk?
and how much easier is to create a new (v)chan with the same name, so their friends can just do a /j #my_buddy_chan and mIRC will help them step in the right channel, without even knowing there were problems with the chan
I doubt that you ever think of such tiny little needless things but anyways ;b
end of discussion ;b
