::Stop wasting our time with this pointless proposal. You're utterly concerned for what is essentially nothing. Your time is better spent [[Special:Random/Main|improving an article]], not rallying to get a niche feature shut down. —[[User:K6ka|'''<span style="color:#0040FF">k6ka</span>''']] <span title="Canadian!" style="color:red">🍁</span> ([[User talk:K6ka|<span style="color:#0080FF">Talk</span>]] · [[Special:Contributions/K6ka|<span style="color:#0B4C5F">Contributions</span>]]) 21:03, 25 April 2021 (UTC)
 
:::The relative cost of keeping the IRC channel open is basically nil. Keeping it up is not an administrative burden as MarketingSimmer claims. It doesn't cost us anything financially to keep it open. And its continued existence hasn't led to any noticeable confusion from the community so far as I'm aware. On the other hand, consider the relative cost of shutting it down. There are several users who use the IRC channel regularly, who do not use Discord; by shutting the channel down, they are forced out. The relative cost could be justified, but MarketingSimmer has given no concrete justification for incurring the cost.

::::{{VoteAgainst}}'''Oppose''' - Sorry, but no. This is literally a repeat of the [[Forum:Closing down IRC Channel|previous proposal]] that you started nearly 2 years prior. No circumstances have changed since that time, and I would strongly recommend that you don't try and make any further proposals to shut down IRC. LiR and k6ka have voiced their opinions on this forum, and given that I agree with pretty much everything that they've said, I don't really have anything further to add. Other than that I don't think you should try and make any further proposals relating to shutting down IRC. ― <span style="font:bold 108% 'Constantia';">[[User:C.Syde65|<font color="#800000">C.Syde</font>]]</span> <span style="font: 108% 'Adobe Garamond Pro';">([[User talk:C.Syde65|<font color="#000000">talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/C.Syde65|<font color="#000000">contribs</font>]])</span> 01:49, 27 April 2021 (UTC)
