How to join
Follow the official Liberty Shells page and join #shell on the IRCNow network to request an account. An interview and learning process is described; ask staff which team is accepting requests.
What to keep in mind
The Liberty Shells documentation is older. Its published limits and interview process should be confirmed with the team before requesting an account. IRCNow also offers services separately from shell accounts.
