Re: UnrealIRCd 6.x – Config error (log/modules) after upgrade

takeokismet,

Please read notes about upgrading UnrealIRCd 5 to UnrealIRCd 6: https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/Upgrading_from_5.x
There are a "Update log blocks" section.
But I recommend you read all topics.

Re: Unexplained nick changes

Hi,

I suggest you to check your services log to get more details. Time on your log is a bit strange.
I think you disconnected and reconnected automatically. In reconnection you will need to identify yourself again, otherwise your nickname will change (unless you use SASL).

Re: Funding and donations

Hey Syzop,

Another note is that the donations page (https://www.unrealircd.org/index/donations) is very large and gives the impression that many people are donating.

The point is that this donation page has donations going back many years. But those who are going to donate don't know that. People ...

Re: Funding and donations

Hi Syzop

First of all, thank you for exposing the situation. Would you be surprised if I told you that I wasn't aware of this amount of costs? And most people probably don't know either.

I would change the DONATE section at https://www.unrealircd.org/docs/Contributing

Should have passed on the first break (line ...
