Description

This script joins channel &servers and listens for netsplits. A list of current netsplits can be accessed via partyline. After a set time netsplits are marked as critical, since people can nick-collide and take server op via the other server.
This script was written for IrcNET, so it might be useless on other networks.

Commands MSG/DCC

DCC Commands

.netsplits (m|m) - show all current netsplits

Further help is available via the netbots help system. Use .nethelp
