Conversation ReviewI'd give it zero stars if I could - Version: 2.14, 2/28/2007 07:12AM PST

Totally worthless. Stagnant, buggy. The features that it does have (not enough) are buggy. Filetransfers doesn't work, searching in the channel list causes a crash. I got screen garbage with controls drawing on top of each other in the preferences.

Two years since last activity ? Another lost IRC client. There's been so many over the years.

Conversation ReviewUsed to be worthwhile. Now it's a dead program. - Version: 2.14, 12/28/2006 05:12PM PST

Avoid.

It crashes instantly every single time I open the preferences on my Intel Mac. Doesn't crash on my regular Mac, but the UI is so ..amateurish... I've tried emailing the developer but the address bounces back.

This program is abandoned, and can be considered Dead.

Avoid.

Look at modern alternatives like Ircle, Snak, Colloquy.

I guess the silence kind of answers my question quite well -- no reply here, no current activity on the website...seems to me that this app is dead...!?
Too bad though, it was one of the better IRC clients for the Mac and had lots of potential...
