For clarification: When you type /channel #Channel, there will be a select listbox that says "Topic history", at the moment (as far as I can see), there is no way to find out the old topics that are stored there. Those who can, cannot. Those who cannot, can.

My channel occasionally loses it topic for whatever reason (Undernet) and I have to go put it back in. Half of the time, the topic is in the recent topics dropdown menu and half of the time, it's not. I'm assuming it's based on how long since it was changed or added. I'm usually on 24/7, so I only ever see a topic when I join (rarely) or when someone adds or changes it (also, rarely). It would be helpful if it stored it "forever" as long as you don't leave the channel. Invision Support #Invision on irc.irchighway.net
