This is an IRC client in Emacs. I'm using ZNC as an IRC bouncer, so some of this might only apply if you're using ZNC too.

1. Hiding alerts

(setq erc-hide-list '("JOIN" "PART" "QUIT"))

– https://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/26997/erc-mode-how-to-hide-alerts-when-users-join-leave-a-channel

2. Setting default server

In spacemacs, they are set at the point of including the erc layer in your layers config. 

(erc :variables
        erc-server-list
        '(("irc.example.com"
                :port "6770"
                :ssl t
                :nick "nick"
                :password "password")))

IMPORTANT NOTE: don't actually put your password in the config - https://www.spacemacs.org/layers/+chat/erc/README.html#security-note 

machine <irc.server.url> login <yournick> password <yourpassword> port <portnumber>
