IRC server is hostile.

I have always opposed the use of nickserv as a simple convenience issue.
However i do recognize that there are people out there with nothing
better to do with their time than screw with an open IRC chan. As a
result i have always defaulted to those in charge of the channel and
their tolerance and willingness to administer the channel. If the
nickserve severely decreases administration i can certainly understand
its implementation and will grudgingly abide as usual. A second concern
of mine however is that many newcomers to IRC/Linux DO select the fedora
distro and i would argue that nickserv slightly raises the barrier to
entry for those new folks. Like i said though if it helps maybe it is
worth the cost.
