While a good way to get people onto the network and chat or find help for this site, instead we tend to get a crapload of people a day that sign on from this site and quit in 3 seconds (literally) because nobody populates #ffxiah (channel owned by cliff) because everyone uses the forums.
Might the admins of this site (since they seem to not reply to PMs) suggest a better solution? Either to promote IRC more so that more of your community uses #ffxiah or just not bother with the widget at all. Because our main channel gets flooded with FFXIAH irc widget people join/quit join/quit etc.
I am happy to give your mods and admins full access to the channel to do with as you see fit should you decide to use the channel more (right now only cliff has access as channel owner).
