Actually, my IRC server works on the standard IRC protocol, since it's the original IRC server software - fully RFC compliant.

A thing I'd make clear about IRC..... Every channel there has its specific name, and that's what differs it from any other channel. Normal channel names always begin with a # sign. To participate in a "conversation", you must join a channel, see who's there and start talking. You can easilly create a new channel, invite people to it or list the channels on the IRC network. There are also private messages between two people like in the Messenger. The server I created isn't linked to any other server though, so it's not a part of an IRC network. It's a private standalone server.
