I recall I loved IRC so much when I was young I learned all the protocol even if I didn't want to actually use it.
- phpnode 16y agoI was one of a million other teenagers who learnt it trying to write an IRC client in VB5/6.
- _delirium 16y agoI think my first introduction to "Turing tar-pit" style programming was trying to write an IRC client in mIRC script, which even sorta worked.
- phpnode 16y agoI did that too, before mIRC supported multiple servers, I loved mIRC script, now, not so much
- Zev 16y agoI suppose that makes me one of the smaller handful of people who's learned the IRC protocol while making an iPhone app (Mobile Colloquy). And I even liked it so much that I then had to go and do some work on a second implementation of it (for Justin.tv's app)!
