Category: irc Group: None >Status: Closed Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Rolf (leggewie) Assigned to: Ethan Blanton (eblanton) Summary: Make it easier to switch servers Initial Comment: Hi, previously I used saberhagen.freenode.net to connect to IRC. Now I think it is better to let irc.eu.freenode.net decide which regional server I should connect to. Trying to switch the server was a pain. If I had just gone the obvious route and changed the setting in "Tools - Accounts - Modify" I would have lost all subscribed groups and logs (I did that once). To prevent that I opened the following files in an editor: accounts.xml, accels and blist.xml and replaced every occurence of saberhagen.freenode.net with irc.eu.freenode.net. Furthermore I renamed the log directory accordingly. I think this should be easier to do and via the GUI. I set to category IRC for now but this might apply to others as well. I also think this is borderline bug instead of RFE considering the unexpected result when one goes the "official" route.
