Righty, let's get some discussion going grin. I'm going to play devil's advocate here, because I'm interested in people's responses.

I'm sure we've all seen new users who just don't understand that (1) miRC is not IRC, and that (2) IRC is not a single network.

So - how can we make people realise this more quickly? Re-write help files to emphasise the point (are they read anyway)? Change the connect dialog to make it more obvious (perhaps a different 'first use' dialog)? Change mIRC's name to lessen confusion? (Or would it)?

I'm not advocating any of these things, I'd just like to see people's thoughts on dealing with the issue. Or if you think it needs dealing with at all. grin
