Question about IRC

[Fista_Cuffs]

Why is IRC access allowed to non staff members? it kinda ruins the point of the alliance chat when other enemy alliance can just watch irc chat and see all that is said in any chat on the server. i think it should be staff only as there is no reason i can see why anyone else needs access to it.

I sometimes like to go on IRC at school to chat with people as they blocked access to minecraft servers.

The other day maplethesnippa (on He was obvioslynotmapl) saw all of my faction chat. I knew he could see it so i talked in msg if it was important.

Thats what we all do.

I'm testing something that seems pretty bad.
I'm not re-routing all chat through different methods in an attempt to make factions avoid going through irc, the known issues in doing this include chat lag, messages never appearing, and generic server lag.

As it's a test I'll see how it goes, but currently faction chat should have been stopped from going to IRC, although if there is a large enough lag spike it may still pick it up.

assault i wouldn't say that's a valid reason for you using irc if anything it more strongly supports my side that it shouldn't be used by non staff. if your school has minecraft servers blocked then it must be for a reason and they would probably block irc if they knew what you were using it for. Thanks for trying alien, hopefully this test will work out ok.

Have you tried the jabber protocol plugin that comes with essentials? Its highly configurable, and you can access it with things like gtalk, and facebook chat.

IRC was picking up most things essentials related that shouldn't have been showing. I re-routed some essentials as well to get rid of messages from people that were muted.
Currently the only messages I know of that show in IRC when they shouldn't are from people that are jailed.

Fista, if I've got an hour to waste in between lessons I do whatever I want
