Makaiwell, started out a sanbox network for JoeK, an oper of InfernoIRC. Makaiwell officially started on November 10th, 2008, as a branch off of InfernoIRC, because of Inferno's management corruption. This may seem like a bad start for a network, but other users followed, bringing Makaiwell 30 users, in the first 2 days. During this time, b4 and JoeK, both hosted the 2 first IRC servers, on home based connections. Due to netsplits and server disconnectivity, b4 placed his server on a VPS near Thanksgiving. During this time, the opers were: JoeK, b4, Alfrunn23, Avenue, Bobman. On December 12th, JoeK transferred eclipse onto his VPS, and used eclipse for his custom made services, comserv. Shortly before christmas, Alfrunn23 was fired due to giving people un-authorized access to servers and abuse of power. Days after, Josh brought in a server and alfrunn's spot as IRCop. Shortly after, JoeK linked his second VPS, as andromada. After pie linked his server, it was shortly delinked due to instability. Alex, a new oper, linked in his server in illinois, to replace venus(pies server). Shortly after, sapphire was taken down(b4s vps) and his oper. From then on, makaiwell had around 100 users. Then came in Sandro with the vortex server. And the most recent IRCop was t2c2008. With the movement of some TV channels, the network has ~200 users, all happily living under Makaiwells secure servers(all on ssl). Feel free to ask question on this in our generic chat channel, #makaiwell.<br > <br > <br > As of October 11th, 2009 Makaiwell unmerged from GeeksIRC and started independantly once again. The old staff returns and the drama is minimized. GO TEAM!
