Description
In September 2000 I started chatting and instantly loved it. It opened a new world with so much to learn. I went from Java to Java totally unaware of mIRC, IRC etc. I met a friend who introduced me to another server and other chatters where I day by day explored and learnt more sometimes surprising myself. I was a regular chatter and would sit back and think how I would love to have the job of an oper - yet still so new and scared of it all. In time i learned that the fear to try was my worst enemy and that I had to overcome those fears.
In November 2000 I had a website made by a good friend and we started with a #kickchat channel on a server. The name Kickchat is related to kickboxing which was a hobby of my children. However, there were many problems that occured at the beginning. Many, many problems with connections, netsplits and attacks to the network. I eventually moved and found similar difficulties and there was never anyone there to help sort problems out as they occured. No Administrators or IRCOps. At this point in February-March 2001 I finally decided to get my own shell. With help from a few close friends and a lot of tech knowledge. We became a team. A team that is still together after over 2 years and dedicated to Kickchat.
As it is with all IRC Networks, you can never please everyone and nothing goes without trouble. However, we have doubled our user amount within 1 year. We had about 90 users at the end of 2001. Now - at the end of 2002 - we had a user maximum of 195. For a server on it's own, without links or file servers so far that is not a bad average. And clones are hardly possible as well due to our services settings. We try to make the chat secure, therefore a proxy scanner was added to our services as well.
