I use an irc bouncer proxy to maintain a persistent connection. With most irc clients this works great. But with Emacs erc when I disconnect erc then disconnects from all of the channels completely defeating the purpose of using the irc bouncer. I have looked several times but haven't found where this disconnection is done. Does anyone know how to tell erc not to do this? [My workaround when I am using erc is to pull the network connection so that erc can't transmit the disconnect commands and then to exit erc. Then I can reconnect to the network. Harsh. But effective!] Bob
