DarkWorld IRC Services Overview

DarkWorld Network uses the Anope Services Suite (integrated with UnrealIRCd) to provide advanced network management, nickname protection, and channel control. These services enhance user experience, ensure stability, and help prevent abuse across the network.

What Are IRC Services?

IRC Services are automated programs that work alongside the IRC server to manage identities, channels, and security features. They allow users to register nicknames, protect channels, send offline messages, request vHosts, and much more.
