Welcome!

ScoutLink LogoScoutLink is a global non-profit organisation which aims to connect scouts and guides worldwide. We provide a safe and supervised chatting environment for them, using the Internet Relay Chat (IRC) technology. Scoutlink is online 365 days a year and has created friendships around the planet. Our main event is JOTI and we enjoy connecting with new people each year.

IPv6 - the next step

Everybody who wants to be present in the internet of the future needs to be reachable also via IPv6. ScoutLink is having IPv6 enabled IRC servers already for a longer time. As we are trying to improve IPv6 support on our network we now have extended our infrastructure a bit. So the current IPv6 status is:

SSL unified on all servers

 We just finished deploying the new SSL certificates on our IRC servers. This means all servers now use a certificate issued by our own CA. 

We are currently also deploying these certificates on our webservers so you can already use plenty of our servers now via SSL.

Child Protection

On ScoutLink we take child protection very seriously. For example, all our operators are checked out by their Country/Regional Coordinators (CC/RC) to make sure they are registered with the appropriate Scout Association. Whenever you have a problem, whatever that problem may be, please talk to an operator, who will do their best to help you. If you ask in the channel you are in, any ops that are available will come forwards. If you cannot find an operator, type /ircops or /stats P .
