From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
- The correct title of this article is psyBNC. The initial letter is shown capitalized due to technical restrictions.
psyBNC is an IRC network bouncer or BNC. psy is short for psychoid, the original creator of psyBNC. BNC is short for bouncer, a method of "bouncing" through a server to cloak your hostname.
psyBNC became popular due to the nature of the way it worked. Unlike other BNC software out there, psyBNC stayed connected to your IRC network, even when your IRC client was not connected to the BNC.
Not only this, but psyBNC comes with an array of features that appear to the users, such as multiple users in one BNC; ability to change your vhost on the fly; scripting support (basic); logging; multi server support; and recently IPv6 support.
psyBNC now has 4 additional developers who go under the alias' of Arakis, Chaot, iceblox, and inFECT.
