Holy shit I think saidit might revive IRC back from the dead (if saidit gets more popular). Thanks for opening it up to external servers.

Whats the 3rd server for? Just a backup?

There is the main server, which has most everything.

Then there is the irc server, which will be at irc.saidit.net

Then 3rd server will act as a proxy server for the main server for media content. It will also host thelounge, which is our IRC chat software that runs in-page

This will protect us by compartmentalizing the different functions, as well as providing necessary proxy services which mask our IP.

We'd love to help IRC make a comeback.

just curious what is the port for irc.saidit.net ? I am use to seeing the port following a : after the server. ex: irc.saidit.net:xxxx

It doesn't exist yet, but when it does we will announce the port and other settings. Thanks for your patience
