Unscheduled maintenance - 29 APR 2021
We've been alerted to a hardware issue for one of our client servers, which required a reboot. This server (rattler) has been removed from rotation for now as we continue to monitor it; however, your client may attempt to reconnect you to it. If you're having trouble reconnecting, please use irc.darenet.org. We apologize for any inconvience this may have caused.
Scheduled Maintenance 29 MAR 2021
We will be migrating one of our IRC servers to new hardware, as the current host has reached end of life, which will require the server to go offline during the process. This will not impact most users, as we have already removed the server from rotation; however, should you find yourself disconnected, we always suggest using irc.darenet.org to ensure you can immediately reconnect.
Server Maintenance - 02 JAN 2021
