💡 About the IRC Network
The **DarkWorld IRC Network** is the foundation upon which the community was built. It operates a **global cluster** of servers distributed across multiple continents for performance and reliability.
Users can connect using the main entry point:
> **irc.darkworld.network**
The system automatically routes you to the nearest or least-loaded hub. Alternatively, users may connect directly to a regional server such as:
- 🇩🇪 **german.darkworld.network**
- 🇺🇸 **us-central.darkworld.network**
- 🇦🇺 **australia.darkworld.network**
For a full overview of the infrastructure, visit → DWIRC Server List.
The network runs on **UnrealIRCd** (as the IRC daemon) and **Anope Services** for authentication, NickServ, ChanServ, and bot management.
🏗️ Infrastructure Overview
DarkWorld’s infrastructure is distributed across multiple regions with dedicated IPv6 and IPv4 connectivity. All services are containerized and managed through secure automation scripts ensuring high uptime, stability, and isolation between user environments.
- Core components include:
- Dedicated VPS clusters in the US, EU, and Australia
- Reverse-proxied HTTPS gateways for web-based services
- Automated SSL/TLS management via Let’s Encrypt
- PostgreSQL and MariaDB-backed authentication systems
