Famous IRC artist.

> yeah you don't want opal on your IRC network

One of these "DCC 0 0 0" spammers getting people with crappy firewall middleboxes disconnected?

No,a PM/channel troll&spammer. but his persistence and discipline really merits the title of an artist.

Don’t glorify misbehaviour.

Opal is a beautiful girl and tends to be quite vocal about the fact. I'm not sure why you felt it necessary to misgender them.

Great, now everyone knows.

The DCC 0 0 0 trick was already old a decade ago, by now literally everyone using IRC should have heard of it...
