This might have an explanation, presumably because of tons of spam
bots, the ceph channel (or whole oftc network?) requires you to be
registered (which I wasn't), so I was posting a lot to IRC these last
weeks and felt quite ignored since certain people kept asking again
even while I was repeating my answers.

On irssi (and I guess other clients too), the answer was in the
general server tab, which stated:

11:47 -!- #ceph Cannot send to channel (You are not registered and verified.
          '/msg NickServ help' to learn how to register and verify)

So while I do support anti-spam measures and had no troubles
registering, at least my client did not tell me well enough that my
posts weren't showing to others, so I went on answering questions with
text that no one saw. I guess some others did the same and hence the
channel felt more dead than it actually was.

I suggest ceph channel ops puts this into the topic so users know they
need to register before their submitted text appears.
