You don't need to start a whole IRC server yourself, just register a channel on an existing network. I hang out on Synirc, there's a bunch of SA goon channels there.


Also guys not sure if you've heard the news but AIM is shutting down soon.
It's not just for you guys. My old school student group runs an IRC server but it's flakey as fuck because it's also a test machine for the new members, so I wanted to make a more stable alternative.

Over on Questionable Questing, it has a pretty accurate assessment on the rise and fall of SD.Net (with its main points of failure being mini-cults of personality and over zealous, inconsistent moderating or/and angry debating).

EDIT - also as time rolled on, with 2003 being a fucking long time ago now, we have a pretty big shift in attitudes to online behaviour and the core members of SD.Net drifted apart for one reason or another.

When you get down to it I do think that Wong was right about more things than he wasn't, and that being aggressive and willing to call people out when you think they're dishonest or immoral is a good attitude to have in general.
