Well, I'd like to know how many errors you have encountered with this interesting server. I, for one, have had 5+ .

I've been randomly dropped from the server once or twice... including tonight, and now it is evidently down.

Ah, figured out the problem! It seems their DNS is unstable, so you need to connect via their IP address. I asked #services, and right after I left, I got a message:

--- NewsFlash: [If you're friends or chatters are having problems connecting, tell them to use: /server 64.246.19.36 If they are on an IRC Client, Our DNS Is Temporarily Down.]

So, since I always connect via IP for some reason, heh, I was the only one able to get on. So anyway, change your client's settings to connect to 64.246.19.36 instead of irc.aXpi.net. Thanks all.

Yes, Merlin. I said that, who-knows-how-long ago, right here: http://www.dinknetwork.com/forum.cgi?MID=18146, so if people would start reading the news, they wouldn't have had so many problems.
