Need IRC help...

I avoid IRC servers like the plague, but I'm in need of one right now. However, I have a question that needs answering.

What do I need type after seeing this message? Please be specific.

"You need a registered nickname to join this channel"

Google is your friend.

you need to register with nickserv using

Quote:

---

/ns register email password

---

• Register: /ns register <password> <youremail>
• Identify: /identify <password> (everytime you join irc you will have to indetify yourself)

/msg nickserv register [email] [password]

and then you may have to identify yourself

/msg nickserv identify [password]

edit: kondare beat me to it

Everyone is suggesting different stuff. :ermm:

When I enter, "/msg nickserv register [[email protected]] [password]"

I get the message, "NickServ- [password] is not a valid e-mail address."

There are multiple commands for registering and identifying. You can try either.

1) /msg nickserv register "password" "Email"
2) /msg ns register "password" "email"
3) /ns register "password" "email"

If the above doesn't work, type /msg nickserv help register

For identifying, type this

1) /msg nickserv identify "password"
2) /ns identify "password"
3) /ns id "password"

When I type the suggested text I get
"-NickServ- Syntax: REGISTER password email
-
-NickServ- /msg NickServ HELP REGISTER for more information."

yeah, so just type /ns register [pass] [email]

OK, I typed "/msg nickserv help register" and I got:

"-NickServ- Syntax: REGISTER password [email]"

That's just noise to me.
