I've discussed this previously, but I think we concluded that it was too hard to get right and that it might have a few unwanted side effects. It might work okay for small channels, but would probably be a bit weird to scale for Slacks with thousands of users. If you're interested it should definitely be possible to implement in a fork though, but I'm gonna close this as I think it's quite different from slack-irc's existing functionality.
Feel free to PM me on Gitter or similar if you want some tips in terms of how the current codebase could be changed to function like that though!
The current code spawns a bot and makes it join the IRC channel(s), then starts
/say
-ing everything that is being said in Slack. Is there a way the code can be patched in such a way that instead of a single bot saying everything, multiple bots can join the channel(s), each one with it's own nick (mapped to a slack user), and make them say what each user in Slack says?
