#speccy

I seem to remember reading a post a while ago to say it had moved from
Astrolink, but for the life of me, I can't remember where[1]

Mr RUDGE!!!
Sorry, I have a rolling message going on in old #speccy but I forgot to
restart it after a reboot this morning...
We moved to coldfront. irc.coldfront.net
same key as always...

Thank you kindly. I shall call in for a visit tomorrow evening. Please
put the kettle on, but there's no need to get out the best china.

But it's also fun to see someone joining and wasting a couple minutes
trying to talk to the bot, especially when they have no idea what a
bot is...

You can always /ignore sirclive. Unless you're using Opera's built-in
IRC client.

IIRC (pun not intended) there are quite a few bogus triggers and
randquotes (e.g. the randquote giving the "a duck's quack doesn't
echo" bollocks was added *after* this urban myth was disproved, and a
randquote to that effect added). However, at least two bogus triggers
have been removed, since they were added by someone unaware that
"cant" and "wont" are legitimate English words. So sirclive still
continues to spout meaningless cant, as is his wont. :-)

And I'm sure it MUST'VE been mentioned that if you don't like sirclive's
wibble it's easy enough to ignore him using the /ignore command (or button
or menu item or whatever in whichever IRC client you're using).

If Sir Clive reads this, he will have trouble understanding what's
going on. :p
Luckily for us, the man doesn't use computers.

He has more sense? ;-)
