Having a bit of a problem logging in to chat

SDPosts: 128Joined: Sat Mar 30, 2013 1:00 amLocation: Wales, UK Gender: Male	Having a bit of a problem logging in to chat Tonight, I tried to log in to chat for the second time since I discovered this site. The first time was the other day and I had to change nicks a few times to get in because I was getting "Banned" message. Eventually got in so thought no more about it, chatted with WarK for a bit and a few others. Tonight I had the same thing, using the nick that successfully logged me in the other day, however I got the "Banned" message with that nick too so had to change it to something completely different again. Any ideas, chaps?

You can keep trying and hope that mibbit will decide to use a different address to connect from. Or you could use a proper IRC client. The channel is #lor it's on irc.oftc.net Did you see that ludicrous display last night?

WarKPosts: 1184Joined: Wed Aug 12, 2009 9:59 am Gender: Tree	Re: Having a bit of a problem logging in to chat An update. Turns out mibbit will stay banned from oftc.net, where our IRC channel for chat is. If you want to use chat in a webrowser you can use webchat provided by oftc.net themselves: https://webchat.oftc.net/ Enter your nick and the name of the channel: #lor or you could use an IRC client and use the following info to connect: server: irc.oftc.net channel: #lor you may use secure connections on port 6697 As for what IRC program to use, I've used XChat for a while. It's free for Linux. You can also try Chatzilla as an addon to Firefox. Did you see that ludicrous display last night?

If anyone has an alternative, I'd happily look at it. if constructive debate is allowed to progress, better ideas will ultimately supplant worse ideas. ~ AndromedasWake Comment is free, but facts are sacred ~ C.

Did you see that ludicrous display last night?

I set up a new client a few days ago. No changes to usage. Any problems (or owt else), let me know. Regularly. if constructive debate is allowed to progress, better ideas will ultimately supplant worse ideas. ~ AndromedasWake Comment is free, but facts are sacred ~ C. P. Scott
