Our IRC presence currently consists of two primary channels on the Freenode IRC Network: #psychotic and #psychotic-meeting. General discussion occurs in #psychotic with the #psychotic-meeting channel being reserved for meetings. While we encourage our users to stop by we do, hoever, ask that people abide by the following guidelines.
