Looking for a network to set up a relay

Hello, this may seem a bit unusual to you maybe, perhaps, but let me explain.

I currently have a channel situated on a network that doesn't belong to me (we have around 25-35 people 24 hours a day on the chan), but the channel itself is not as active as I'd like it to be., and I would like to set up a "relay" bot between our channel, and the main channel on your network. Also, I can fully customize the relayer to disable parts/join/topic changes etc, or I can have it show him that. Whatever suits you. I'm just wanting to try this out, see how it goes, and if it's not as good of an idea as I thought or if people get annoyed, then I'll remove the relay.

If you are willing to do this, I will set up the relay bot that would relay messages from the main channel on YOUR network to the channel on the network that we use. Or maybe not even your network, maybe a channel on a different network that you don't own. As long as it's moderately active

Example:
irc.example.com channel #example (our network in this case) and irc.apples.net channel #apples (yours)

Foo1234 joins channel #example on irc.example.com and says "Hello"
Relay bot relays message over to irc.apples.net channel #apples

<Relay> *** Join #example Foo1234
<Relay> <Foo1234@Example> Hello

Okay, that may seem a bit too obvious, but just for the people who might not understand. Once again I can set joins/parts and modes etc off and only have it relay text.

You may post here, or I can give you the details of where we're located:
har.cyanide-x.net
channel #wtf

The whole point of this is because a lot of people currently wouldn't want to switch to another network, or use another network they're unfamiliar with.

So, just to bump up the activity for now I'd like to try this out (as I've said) and if anything goes wrong, or it's annoying, or you just don't want to have it relay anymore, I'll gladly remove it.

Hi Dark_Titan. I am interested in this, but perhaps we can use a different channel for it rather than the main channel, #Chat maybe? If you're interested, visit me at irc.sleisysoft.net #SleisySoft and PM DarkWarrior.
