cl58 Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 Are IRC Perl scripts allowed to run on HelioHost sites? My site is not only going to be a file-hosting repository (it is a real site), but I want to run an IRC log bot built on Perl. Many hosts do not allow IRC/bot scripts so I want to check before doing anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Byron Posted December 31, 2009 Share Posted December 31, 2009 Many hosts do not allow IRC/bot scripts so I want to check before doing anything. Why is that? Does it put a heavy load on the server? As far as I know it's allowed but if you load the server heavily your account will be suspended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With this said, I will go ahead and try. If it puts on a heavy load, I will stop. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
