Not sure, but an SR IRC channel doesn't sound very secure to me :P

Well, with reddit you aren't maintaining an active connection with a server, unlike IRC.
There is a plethora of IRC exploits, and people who know how to use them! (including me lolz)
But, honestly I don't know much about the SR irc so I probably shouldn't speak in absolutes..
Are you using Tor with the irc? That may protect the geography, but there are still many ports to close so long as there is an IP linked to your machine on the channel. Just be careful.
Cheers
