Subsim IRC channel?

Hello all.

I recently got back on IRC and tried visiting some of the old subsim channels, but they were empty. No signs of anyone at all.

I remember that several years ago they were very active, due in part perhaps to the fact that they were a meeting ground for MP match-ups with SHII and SC. Nevertheless, there was plenty more going on besides game planning. We had a whole group of regulars and it was, dare I say, fun to some degree.

Is anyone else interested in reviving these old channels?

PS: For those of you who are unaware of what IRC is I will try to explain it as simply as I can. IRC stands for Internet Relay Chat. It is a very old method for chatting on the Internet. Generally, you would you would use an IRC client to connect to an IRC server, and then "join" channels, or "chat rooms" on that server.

For those of you who are unfamiliar with all this, you can access these servers and channels by clicking on the "chat" link on the main subsim.com side menu. Further instructions followed on the link.
