Listen to this authentic testimonial, from me: the IRC channel is more fun than a barrel of monkeys! It enlarged my penis! It made me rich! And tall! Everyone there is so nice, Jesus came in, then left in shame!

On a more serious note, its real merits include nice people, several ongoing and in-planning games of various nature, varied and fluidly changing conversation and me. You owe it to yourself to take fiveten fifteen minutes to do all the above and check us out.
