"Pidgin
I must say, I rarely use Pidgin or Kopete for connecting to an IRC
network, but you can find it useful if you don't care much about having a
powerful, dedicated client especially for IRC. Pidgin is widely known for
being the GNOME IM (Instant Messaging) client first, but it can also be
used as a basic IRC client if you are looking to only get on IRC, without
all the options advanced clients provide."
why the poor review for pidgin? What sort of advanced options? Some
sort of scripting?
