BNC4FREE has just bought 2 brand new servers! There should no longer be session limit problems or problems connecting to networks because of limits as we have also purchased 10 ip’s on nl.eu.bnc4free.com. The following new servers have been added:
- on.ca.bnc4free.com - Toronto, CA
- ca.us.bnc4free.com - California, US
During the summer will be carrying out maintenance on ALL servers and this may mean there is some downtime on 1 or 2 days. Information regarding the maintenance and downtime will be posted here, on the BNC4FREE Forum and on Our Twitter.
Thanks for using BNC4FREE!
Yesterday we merged our network (SurgeHost) with 2 existing network SDXHost and ConnectTek. I’ve personally been an administrator on the ConnectTek Network and knew a majority of people from SDXHost. Not even 24 hours after we merged, the network founder and also BNC4FREE Support Staff Member (Brenden), decided to remove our servers and myself from the network for reasons that have not yet been established. By doing this they successfully gained our users from BNC4FREE on SurgeHost ofwhich some of them are still there.
The channel that was owned in ConnectTek (#bnc4free) has been set to invite only by Brenden who has now been removed from our staff team. This network is no longer classified as official due to its abusive actions and what appears to be a plan to take us down. You can alternatively join one of the following official networks:
- GTANetwork - irc.gtanet.com
- Rizon - irc.rizon.net
- ICQ - irc.icq.com
- ChatFTW - irc.chatftw.com
BNC4FREE appologies for this extreme inconvienence and hopes that you can understand the circumstances. We look forward to seeing you again soon!
In the past few months we have had our services bot on SDXHost, SurgeHost and ConnectTek where you have been able to request your free bnc’s and gain support. On Saturday 19th June 2010, SDXHost and SurgeHost have merged with ConnectTek. You will now need to connect to irc.connecttek.net to request your Free BNC or one of our other official networks.
ConnectTek is where all of our staff are most active so your best trying this network if you are in need of support.
BNC4FREE would like to inform all its users that we now have a support forum ofwhich you can gain information about our services, post your problems, idea’s and suggestions, ban appeals and more. You can visit the forum at http://forum.bnc4free.com/.
BNC4FREE has also been on Twitter for some considerable time and some of our updates are posted there even if they are not posted here, you can find us by going on Twitter and search for ‘BNC4FREE’ or you can find us directly by visiting http://twitter.com/BNC4FREE.
BNC4FREE has recent inherited a server in Toronto, CA and may soon have a bnc server on it. We’ve realised that some users that live in europe are on servers in the united states and vice-verser so throughout the summer we will be giving users the oppertunity to switch to a server nearer to them (session limit permitting).
BNC4FREE would like to inform all BNC users on UnderNet (irc.undernet.org) that there have been considerable issues lately with connection throttling on some servers which has resulted in K-Lines. These are usually started by failing to send a Challenge Response. Please can you either make sure that your BNC’s default nickname isnt the same as you registered one of make use of the ‘perform’ module which can be loaded by using ‘/bnc loadmod perform’ and then add your authentication details. Use ‘/msg *perform help’ for information.
