    DALnet, is one of the biggest IRC (Internet Relay Chat) chat networks on earth. With thousands of members and thousands of chat rooms, this should be one of the best on-line chat forums on the planet. What can I chat about? Anything, whether it’s pokemon or subjects for over 18s DALnet will have it. It’s not just chat too, it’s also a Napster, but more on that later. The beauty here is that you can create your own chat channel, and run it the way you want to. What else can I do?

    Disadvantages Disadvantages performance

    I've been using dalnet for nearly a year now, mainly because my favourite channel is there but also because they offer services that many other networks dont.
