The setup was never completed as we had the base version. See my other replies where I wrote a few reasons why we did it.

Well, as mentioned, feel free to send a request so we can evaluate if we should give it to more users.

Please, for posting question, use the Universal Thread. This is where you'll get a better chance of answers.

As for the reply, things haven't changed. The VisualFoxPro channel is always there. It is important for us to have predefined locked channels sychronized with our forums. This is a IRC server which goes in sync with was were are here.

No, that was mentioned as an example.

If flooding, yes, we would have to rely on the first user who have admin rights to react on that. If you are always there and feel that you would like to be part of the team, feel free to send your request so we can talk more about it.
