I have been on the #webmin and #virtualmin channels on Freenode for a long time and it's been great, but recently without any operators around, the channels are falling apart with spam bots and disruptions and there's not much I can do about it because I'm powerless there. I'm curious if we could get some active channel operators or something to mitigate the influx of spam bots and disruptions in the chat. Can we make this a thing?

Hi, I am actively trying to get control of #webmin and #virtualmin as both channels are not registered or maintained. My nick is Sysop_NiteStorm on FreeNode. I have randomly tried to help people when and where i can with webmin and virtualmin. I hate to say, I think the admins of webmin/virtualmin gave up on IRC.

Agree! Even here the bots are becoming a problem.
Do you know a way to report them?
