Please help me get the word out and prove an entire irc channel wrong

I was just on the SWCombine IRC channel when someone said no one plays DF any more and, quote,

Who gives a damn about Bay12
Please help me by logging on to the following irc server/channel:
irc.swcombine.com
#swc-members
And tell them Trikk_Scanthar sent you. Ideally, we could all get on at the same time and spam the channel.
So, please help me prove someone wrong about DF.

Bay12 is not your personal army.  Also spamming is a dick move.

I might drop in for a look if there's DF talk though.  I'm bored.

It's useful to keep a ‼torch‼ handy.

BAY12!!ASSEMBLE!!! :P (that would be fun though)
I know it sucks when you see such people talk about something which they have no clue about, but then what can we all do?They are ignorant and doing this is not going to achieve anything, Let them say whatever they want. What we can be happy about is to look at our thriving community  :D.

Why would anyone want to get involved in an Internet slap fight?

Because it's the Internet.

Seriously though, I already got a lecture from Mr Frog about this, and if I could I would take this topic down.

Reading his name would trigger it. Thinking of him would trigger it. No other circumstances would trigger it- it was strictly related to the concept of Bill Clinton entering the conscious mind.
