Help Us Preserve IRC
IRC has connected people and communities for decades. Morphie wants to help preserve that history by giving aging IRC networks, websites, domains, and community projects a chance to continue instead of simply disappearing.
Keeping IRC History Alive
Many IRC networks and websites have been online for years, sometimes decades. When an owner retires, loses interest, or no longer has the time or resources to continue operating a project, an important part of Internet history can vanish.
Morphie is interested in helping preserve these communities whenever practical. That may mean acquiring a network, taking ownership of a domain, maintaining legacy connection addresses, preserving a website, or simply helping an established IRC project find a new home.
Sell Your IRC Network or Website
If you own an established IRC network, IRC-related website, domain, community, or project and are considering stepping away, Morphie may be interested in purchasing it.
Every project is different. We are happy to discuss its history, community, infrastructure, domains, software, traffic, and what you would like to see happen next.
Discuss a SaleDonate Your IRC Project
Some owners are less interested in selling and more concerned with making sure their community, domain, or project does not disappear.
If you own an IRC-related project and would like to transfer or donate it to Morphie for continued preservation, we would be glad to talk with you about the possibilities.
Discuss a DonationIRC Projects We May Be Interested In
Preservation is not limited to entire IRC networks. Morphie may be interested in a wide range of IRC-related projects and resources.
IRC Networks
Established IRC networks, communities, server infrastructure, and related network assets.
IRC Websites
Community websites, directories, documentation, resource sites, and long-running IRC portals.
IRC Domains
Historic, recognizable, or established domains associated with IRC communities and projects.
Software & Services
IRC bots, services, web applications, scripts, software, and other tools built for IRC users.
Archives & Documentation
Historical information, guides, network records, documentation, and other material worth preserving.
Community Projects
Other established IRC-related communities and projects that may need a new owner or permanent home.
What IRC Preservation Can Look Like
Every IRC project has its own history and needs. Preservation does not always mean keeping everything exactly as it was. The goal is to preserve what makes the project important whenever practical.
Preserving Connections to IRC’s Past
Morphie already maintains legacy connection addresses associated with IRC communities such as P2PChat and ZAIRC. Keeping older domains and connection paths available helps longtime IRC users continue reaching the community through addresses they already know.
P2PChat
Legacy P2PChat connection addresses remain available as part of Morphie’s broader IRC network and preservation efforts.
ZAIRC
ZAIRC connectivity is also maintained as part of Morphie’s effort to preserve established IRC identities and access.
Before You Shut It Down, Talk to Morphie.
If you have spent years building an IRC network, website, domain, or community, shutting it down does not have to be the only option.
Whether you want to sell it, donate it, or simply explore whether someone else can keep it alive, contact us before pulling the plug.
