IRC is not needed and it hasn't been needed for an extremely long time: in fact, there was a consensus (which I was part of) that agreed that Wikia Chat would be enabled to replace the IRC, so I don't know why you didn't consult with the wiki community about it, quite a lot of users were clear that they didn't see the point in it and wouldn't use it. Considering the IRC will likely be overlooked by 90% of all users ever joining the wiki, as (in my opinion) the wiki chat is far better designed than the IRC, I don't think this is really worth making a fuz about.
