Of course they aren't, because they're all on an IRC channel sharing with each other totally differerent chains.  We're talking chains that are nearly 1000 blocks different size-wise.
Why can't we turn off all the eliesus nodes? if you turned off your three nodes (that you said aren't even running the daemon anyways) and we turned off the IRC channel, nobody would know how to talk to anybody else.  Then start by announcing nodes that are on the correct chain, to connect to via addnodes.
The IRC functionality is just asking for a fork.  and yes, there is also a #huntercoin02

otherwise just release an emergency version update and modify the IRC channel to use a different one, then make sure that you have only got the correct fork daemons on that channel when poeople start to join it.

it's not a proper fix.. and hoping people don't just add eligius chain to the new irc channel is not good.. people will jsut do it out of spite

it needs to be fixed properly

Devs need to check what happened at the blocks at the fork
Devs need to work out why we are not reorging to the longest chain

they will be related.

from the sounds of things, it seems you just want to be on this longest chain.. which i can respect, ..
but, whatever has to be has to be.. i'm not deciding, we will see what the people who can "see" the code think

also snail, bitcoin has had the irc functionality disabled since what, version 6.0?
what version of the bitcoin daemon did you guys even use for namecoin/huntercoin???

same for namecoin..
namecoin is based on bitcoin 0.3.x, and huntercoin is based on namecoin...

if you have 30k$ you can pay for the rebase if you want.. or spend a year doing it Cheesy

it has been suggested about removing the irc lookup in the past.. probably will be done with the reimplementation onto libcoin
