And people are supposed to somehow know in advance that the channel keeps track of IP addresses and then forces them to join even after they have closed the client? I always assumed that the channel just prevents you from /parting, because I did not have the necessary imagination to foresee that it would actually keep forcibly joining my IP address forever afterwards, and that mIRC would have a security hole the size of a Deathstar that allows it to happen. Even if I had known that such things are possible, I likely would have given Rizon the benefit of the doubt by assuming that they aren't such major fucking assclowns that they would actually do it (obviously I was mistaken).
Who the fuck cares? I am not playing your stupid fucking game. If I want to leave a channel then I'm leaving it, even if it means keeping my client in an infinite disconnect loop until the powers that be start crying like the bitches they are and k-line me. So go fuck yourself.Also, every 45-90 minutes there is a 1 minute window in which you can freely part without getting forcejoined again.
And client developers put up with it, which is the entire problem. It's unacceptable that a client can be hijacked. When a browser is forced to visit a certain page without the user having a say in the matter, it's called a security problem, not a feature.This really has nothing to do with clients, IRCds have a command to forcejoin a client to a channel.
