    Nothing. Like, absolutely nothing. It didn’t keep up with the times. I spent am untold amount of time on IRC, but the fact that you have to be online to have a chance to read messages just doesn’t jive with most people’s schedules anymore.

      Spam and other attacks did happen. And it doesn’t really handle being mobile or disconnected without some sort of proxy. Among other things.

      It’s still there, but withered and infested. Kind of like Usenet and real email.
