I have been IRC'ing now for around 10 years and find #FreeBSD on UnderNet,
#FreeBSDhelp on EFNet and ##FreeBSD on freenode to be useful most times.
However #FreeBSD on EFNet is a worthless channel full of venomous toads.

#freebsd on freenode is a worthless channel full of venomous channel
operators who ban for grammar, and spelling mistakes.

IRC does not have to have the stigma it seems to have. There are many
decent users out there - and the efforts should not be dismissed - imho.
