After much deliberation we have decided to sponsor the channel: #modding.uk on Quakenet. This channel is for everyone who wants to chat about modding or hang out in the heady atmosphere which was #bit. We only run the bot in this channel, we have no ops and no rules as such. The bot will be upgraded to deal with spamming and swearing in the near future, however it is a completely unofficial channel and as such you are welcome to conduct yourselves there as you like. On that note we cannot be held responsible for any conversation or action which arises inside the channel and will not follow up on any reports of unacceptable behaviour in there, aside from attempts to attack the channel or bot. Hopefully this will give you IRC addicts somewhere to hang out whilst giving us the breathing room we need to let the channel run its course. Admittedly it may be a little more rowdy, but I'm sure you can sort yourselves out there If there are any admin issues, please still contact Spike, however remember what's stated above. Hopefully we can continue the feeling of community gained in the original channel without either side having too many issues with it. Knock yourselves out guys
i think the important thing is that you guys will make the channel, if its bad its your fault if its good its your success.... if you annoy each other then thats your problem have a nice IRC one quick thing tho.... makesure u keep within Qnet rules (see command /motd ) if you don't the feds will be onto you

That's the MOTD (Message Of The Day) you get when you connect to a server. And it's not mIRC in trillian, it's just IRC in trillian, mIRC is the name of an IRC client, IRC is the protocol
first type in /server uk.quakenet.org this will connect you to the UK quakenet servers once you see the MOTD type /j #modding.uk and this will connect you to the channel once there just type'n'talk its that easy
