IRC issues

can't connect

Any one else having issues with irc.stardock.com?
Might be a local thing, but I saw a whole list of EOFs at 10:40+ EDT and I haven't been able to get back on since.

We experienced some server issues at one of our datacenters.  Things should be happy now.

IRC should always be resilient and have redundancy!  What were you thinking!?!?

Still not working from here. Tried 3 different clients including SDC chat. Can't connect.

Maybe Nickie banned me.......

Lantec, you do something to get banned, that's really funny.

Lantec, could it be modem, router or ISP problems?

Somehow my default_profile.xml file got borked when the server dropped out yesterday. Copied the one from my home system and I'm good to go.........
