I'm pretty sure that's how it was or should be or it's just a past life memory? The same sign can be flipped down or the other way which means "bad times". Since the peace sign is the other way, it is a sign that peace is yet to be achieved.

Nothing but normalfags don't understand it so you get idiots saying things like:
>>911692
Who doesn't know that you can customize the various clients to look like anything you want.
>>911701
Who doesn't understand DCC or how to use a XDCC server
>>911706
That is too retarded to keep up with his own friends and
>>911786
Who hasn't figured out that DCC chat doesn't go through the server.
IRC is fine but it'd be better with voice support. The main weakness is the lack of a normalfag friendly GUI/client. If someone was to hack together one of those and invest in a network that supported voice you'd have something normalfags could use assuming you could pry them away from discord. I hope no one does it though because the main thing I like about IRC is the fact that it isn't overflowing with normalfags anymore.

The point of using something like Telegram or Discord for voice chat is that you can always see the entire chat history, you can always join a channel and see what people said 6 months ago.
