I find conversation typically more friendly on IRC. Also, it's really
awesome to be able to chat with project devs and others in the
community in near real-time capacity. It's also easier to joke and
share stuff without the need to spam the whole mailing list (not that
anyone is doing that). My understanding typically increases ten fold
every time I go ask questions. It's much easier to get opinions, and
discuss things. You'd really never hope to be able to replace all the
IRC conversations with mailing list stuff. It's a different dynamic
entirely.

That's just a personal experience. :)
