but it's not very easy for first time users of ircn or mirc. all of this is fine for true ircn fans, and most capable mirc users wouldn't have any problems with it. then they tell you to use mirc 5.91 or if you use 6.x to completely avoid multiple networks in mirc 6.x. there are no start menu items, no desktop or quick launch shortcuts - and no uninstaller. the folder structure also contains 15 empty folders. when the "installer" has finished extracting folders/files you end up with a folder structure that is 100% useless unless you manually download mirc.exe from somewhere and then read the ircn docs on how to load ircn. their newest installer is almost a year old, and truthfully it's not really an installer, it's just a pkzip self-extractor. While ircn might be better than mpp in some areas, it's still sorely lacking in its "out of box experience".
Knowing that ircn has been out longer than mpp, these things are a little underwhelming. I might be a little off on some of these next points, but i'm trying to present it honestly and accurately. I used ircn a long time ago, in fact it was the last script i remember using before i started working on mpp. curious, has ircn always had this ability? Now i know for a fact that i missed at least one (ircn), and there might be more. it's not that other scripts don't have this feature - potentially they all could have it - but most of the scripts that i've used in the past didn't have this ability at the time i had last used them. I couldn't find a way to modify my review here on the site, but i wanted to rephrase what i had said regarding automatic channel password memorization. just like ircn or any other script for that matter. it just takes time to see everything that mpp does. My original post was simply here to address the negative comments (and ratings) simply because end users weren't paying attention during the installation - and that more important features simply can't/won't be seen during the first five minutes of using mpp.
