Popular IRCd Page

Do you think it is possible that on the "Popular IRCd software page" that where you list the IRCds' Unreal3.2 Unreal RCfix etc, that you can put a link that shows all the networks with that IRCd? It would be a lot easier to see a bunch of networks with an certain IRCd. But of course..this is just me being lazy, but it would be usefull.

This question has been asked before, and the answer is no because if a bug or exploit is found in an IRCd, someone could simply go on that page, find all the networks which run that IRCd and use the exploit.

You can do that here no matter what, just go to the servers MOTD. It would just be easier to find if its all in one page of the same IRCd.

Yes, and why would SearchIRC want to make it easy to do this?

I mean Easier to find other networks that run your IRCd, not easier to exploit.

Unfortunately the two go hand in hand...

It was done..

Heres something I think can be changed there though..

Calculate the number of users and ircd together. That way, the ircd that can handle more users gets more credit.

Meh, maybe it would work..
