We had a couple of possibly well-intentioned but clueless users wander into SSSC today. I'd like to set it to channel mode +k which means you also provide a key to join. Then you will join nearly as usual, you just add the key after the channel name.
/join #sssc supersecr3tp@ssword
or
/ns ajoin add #sssc supersecr3tp@ssword
If someone needs they key that hasn't been around in a while they'll just ask in 17 or PM someone they know is in there.
If there are no strenuous objections I'll make this happen some time this week.
