Yeah, I don't think it is IRC based at all, there are only about two IRC commands that seem to work, like /nick and /topic. I noticed that when connected to their chatrooms, it's through port 1935, which I believe all flash based systems use.
As for talking to the owners of the site about takeovers, they seem to have the attitude of the old MSN, they don't interefere in the affairs of user created chatrooms.
But like the old MSN, there are a lot of idiots running around using some type of program or bot to take over rooms, I just can't figure out how they are doing it or how to stop it. It would be easy if I could get a script in, but I can't.
So if anyone has any suggestions, they will all be greatly appreciated lol. Til then, I guess I'll just have to do lots of research.
Cheers
