DoS attacks are not uncommon against IRC servers. As a server admin, YOU will be responsible for the consequences of having your server attacked. (If your boss doesn't like the fact you just used 100% of his bandwidth for the past hour, that's your problem.)

This server must be available for the long term. If you intend on taking this server down in the "near future", please do not apply. You can use your best judgement on our definition of "near future". We're looking for servers that will be RELIABLE.
