I joined #Cataclysm-DDA using mIRC and there is nobody on that channel.

It worked perfectly fine before, and I’m sure there is no typos as I’m using auto-connect.

There really is nobody on here, or something went horribly bad?

Ed: Nevermind, it magically started working.

Could have been a netsplit, sometimes the connections between IRC servers droppes, and if you log onto a small sub-net it’s like a ghost town.

Most likely, we had a couple of those just yesterday.
