    mIRC users!

    Why use mIRC, it's not opensource or even freeware. If you have cygwin installed or use some kind of Unix, then use epic or ninja. These are very good text-based irc clients. EPIC is very easy to script, so you can get the max of your irc client. Both of them supports multiple server connections...
