But yea, thats why i said its being used as a staff chat, because normal users that don't like the webclient can go to the Wikia chat ;D Except, well, most of the staff talk via Wikia Chat or off-site communications (facebook, steam, skype, emails), so IRC is pointless. :D IRC has alot more features and commands than any other chat program (Correct me if im wrong) And if people actually knew how to use it, then the Wikia chat would be pointless, since no one would ever go back to it. It has happend before.

I think the main reason for the migration to Wikia Chat was due to it being built in. Any user can easily use their wikia account on there, there is no anonimity and no need to register to an external service.
