It would rock to get a list of channels and their uses I'll include some that I know, and there uses for the final draft we should leave some out

* #linux General Linux discussion, and help
* #beginners A place for newer people to Linux to hang out and get help. '''(Will have to ask Lego or ehntoo to be sure)'''
* #MTUstudents General discussion for current MTU students.
* #botsex For letting bots talk to each other in an attempt to being down the IRC server '''(someone rephrase this please)'''
* #ballpit "We're adults now, so it's our turn to decide what that means." No adults allowed ;)
* #prfcpfrc This channel is for PFCRPFRC members to let loose and talk about anything and everything science/PFRC related.
* If you are allowed in the alumni channel, you probably already know what it's called. So don't even try looking for it if you are not one of the '''All-Seeing, All Knowing Council of the Ancients'''.
 
* I'm not sure what the alumni channel is called anymore, they changed it.
