DWBouncers

A Project by the DarkWorld Network Community

DWBouncers are providing ZNC bouncers to IRC Community for various networks and it has ZNC servers in Asia, Europe, America & Oceania. Our main goal is to ensure the stability of the ZNC service and to use robust TLS security, all while providing quick support.

ZNC is a free tool for IRC (Internet Relay Chat) that works like a proxy. It links to an IRC Network on your behalf, stays connected as you want, and keeps track of your activity on the network. Whenever you want to join that specific IRC network, you can connect to ZNC. This ensures you don’t miss any chats or discussions. ZNC is versatile and can be used on different devices like computers, servers, and mobile devices.

To learn more about it please check official ZNC WIKI.
