I don't want those people in #chromium either.  IRC is absolutely the wrong
method for support.  Encouraging that makes everything worse.

Some people will do things wrong.  The number of people who are doing things
wrong by joining the wrong IRC channel, a communication method which didn't
so much stop being relevant for normal people as much as _never start being
relevant_ for normal people, is vanishingly small.

We don't need to make people to look on the Web to find out what

If you can make it cause people to land in their web browser on the user
support forum online, you have my approval!
