+1 I'm not using IRC so I don't know how does it stack against ML and the forums in this regard. One can subscribe to just a couple forum threads or sections to keep the noise down. Such granularity is not available on the ML as there are just a few Arch ML lists although you can ignore / mute on a per-thread basis too.
