I don't normally respond to journals such as this but... it does make me wonder why people need BNC's/sBNC's what ever... Yeah yeah, people can send you 'offline thingi' messages and you can retrieve them when you next log-in (thats if your 'thingi' still works) but come one, get real, are you really that important? Just start up mIRC or what ever you use, connect and be happy ffs.
Personally (not saying it's the same for everybody), I find them useful for the following reasons:

1. Message catcher. It's the voicemail of my internet world to those who I don't want my personal contact details to go to.
2. Nickname preservation. I want my IRC nickname to be MY IRC nickname and not somebody else's.
3. If I'm mid-conversation with somebody and my internet was to go down, or if my PC were to crash, the person chatting with me can continue to send me messages, as my actual server connection will still be live.

Other reasons people use BNCs for is file sharing (very oldskool message of trading warez - never used it myself).

TL;DR = There is a lot more to BNC connections than allowing people to send you offline messages.
