RFC 2811: Internet Relay Chat: Channel management

 

5.2.4 Preserving Sanity In The Name Space


   The combination of the mechanisms described in sections 5.2.2 and
   5.2.3 makes it quite difficult for a user to create a channel
   collision. However, another type of abuse consists of creating many
   channels having the same shortname, but different identifiers.  To
   prevent this from happening, servers MUST forbid the creation of a
   new channel which has the same shortname of a channel currently
   existing.
