IRC-Junkie.org - IRC News

Yes, it’s that time of the year again

After quite some time of thinking what to do with the “old” websites code that i would have to customize to get some of the functionality i’d want to have, i took the plunge and moved everything to Wordpress.

After quite a few tiresome days of importing posts and comments manually, installing things and cursing like a seaman i’m finally done

Please, let me know what you think about it - suggestions and everything are more than welcome.

..phrozen77 and i am the new operator of this fine website.

First of, i want to thank Asmo for doing such a great job with it for oh so long, thank you and kudos for keeping up with it.

I hope i can keep the site up-to-date with interesting articles and tidbits from the big world of IRC just as he did.

He set pretty high standarts the last few years so i really hope i can fulfill the expectations of our loyal readers

All the best wishes to Asmo and his family, i hope to still see you around here!

Lately I hardly found the time to put in this site to keep it a worthwhile read. Hence I’m considering letting it go to new hands. After running the site for more then a decade not a decision I took lightly…

The care of our son and other activities made me make this decision. There’s simply too little time to write anything like I used to do. Researching articles and writing an in depth article can easily take 3-4 hours which I simply can’t realize at this moment. Added on top of that I can’t spent as much time actually chatting on IRC either, so I’m starting to loose touch with the community itself.

Apparently I had forgot to include an urlencode somewhere which did not surface until now.

The feed should be OK now. Excuses for the inconvenience.

OK I know, this headline is one you’ve seen a few times before the past few months. In my rush to get phpBB out of the door I’ve probably took less time with the way things looked then I should have.

As you can see I changed back the graphics and color scheme of the old site (please shift-refresh if you don’t). I got quite a few messages of people preferring the old color scheme after the change, so I hope this fixes the way things look for a lot of people who expressed their discontent with the “neon look”.
