<AlanBell> HazRPG: if you launch xchat-gnome it autoconnects to freenode, tries to use your username as a nick and connects to #ubuntu-countrycode
<AlanBell> which in our case connects to #ubuntu-GB, which redirects to here
<HazRPG> AlanBell: Yeah I know, but if you don't install xchat - then you'd never know would you
<AlanBell> agreed
<AlanBell> getting xchat on the default install would be good in my opinion
<HazRPG> MartijnVdS: I agree, but that could be the disclaimer at the start though
<AlanBell> or another IRC client with similar loco-connecting functionality
<HazRPG> AlanBell: indeed
<HazRPG> just from experience, I end up being the support guy that my fellow converts contact - and well I don't mind that, but well gets annoying after a while xD
