Founded in 1994, DALnet pioneered nickname and channel registration services allowing users to maintain their chat rooms and identities even after logging out. In December 2000, DALnet became the first to hold over 80,000 concurrent chat clients, making it the largest IRC Network in the world. Today, the network handles over 2 million daily connections and supports a userbase of more than 500,000 registered users. Staffed by nearly 200 volunteers and receiving no revenue, the network relies on the generosity of its supporting ISPs to provide the bandwidth it uses.
Today DALnet celebrates their 10th year in operation.
Congratulations!
