As told by Jean

Really, #draconic started on DALnet, with Krasnayath as founder, a small secret channel dedicated to "true" dragons instead of just roleplayers. Of course, as the channel grew, the suckiness of DALnet became apparent with frequent server splits and enormous lag, so Blake and myself suggested moving to a smaller, more stable network -- LunarNet.

And all was mostly well there after a short adjustment period in which the denizens of #arcadia (LunarNet's main channel) and #draconic got used to each other. Loxorion even brought in his own server, quelm.draconic.com, for dragons' use.

Of course, all good things must come to an end, and due to friction between Loxorion and one of LunarNet's administrators, he split quelm off to create DraconicNet, and most, if not all the dragons migrated shortly thereafter. Since then, we have added more servers, grown in size from a single channel to 5-15 depending on the time of day, and our administration has been handed over to a number of generous operators who will be glad to assist you in any way you ask.
