Mitt Romney Spamming Freenode IRC Network

[libertythor]

All night I have been seeing Romney spambots entering any freenode channel I am in. Is there anybody else witness to this?

Can you post (or PM) more information? Servers/channels? IP addresses of the bots? I'd like to research this.

Woah. I haven't used IRC in many years either, but has it really become so lame that there are potential ROMNEY supporters there now? I find that hard to believe.

spamming irc is a pretty ineffective way to win votes in my opinion

LMAO Maybe he is trying to attract computer programmers and people seeking technical support.

That is the main purpose of Freenode.

Whatever he is trying to do, it isn't going to work.
