FreddysHouse IRC now +r

[SAS]

The #FreddysHouse IRC channel will require you to be registered and authorised with the Quakenet Q bot before you can join.

A mini guide on connecting to Quakenet IRC and accessing the FreddysHouse IRC channel can be found here http://guides.freddyshouse.com/irc/mirc.php

Need to register with Q? Login to Quakenet IRC and follow the instructions below

A: You Type: /MSG Q HELLO

*If Q Replies about Registering, follow the instructions below. If Q did not reply about registering go to part B.

You Type: /msg Q HELLO your@emailaddress your@emailaddress
Q Reply = -Q- Hello, "YourUserName". A new user account has been created for you, with nick "YourUserName".
-Q- OK, Your login information has been sent to "Your@EmailAddress". please check your email for further instructions.

Check your email and read it.

To change your password type: /MSG Q NEWPASS oldpassword newpassword newpassword
Q Reply: -Q- OK, password changed.

B: You Type: /MSG Q HELLO

**If Q Reply = -Q- Someone's already registered with that nick!
-Q- If it's YOUR nick type: /msg Q@CServe.quakenet.org AUTH nick password

If it's not your Nick (i.e name), change your name to something else, or like in my case "SAS" I had to change to SAS--. Only letters, numbers and "-" symbols are allowed in names. Next type: /MSG Q HELLO and if the name is not in use you'll be asked the following...

***If Q Reply = -Q- You forgot to type your email address.
-Q- /MSG Q HELLO your@emailaddress your@emailaddress
-Q- Basic instructions and your login information for your new account will be mailed to the email address you supply, so make sure it's valid.

How to auth with Q upon joining quakenet IRC
You Type: /msg Q@CServe.quakenet.org AUTH nick password
Q Reply = -Q- AUTH'd successfully.

Details on setting up mirc to automatically log you onto the Q bot can be found here, on the FreddysHouse MIRC guide.

And if you have to copy and paste the line, do it properly so as to not tell 100 other people what your password is

[FuzzyLogic]

ie, in the system/server majiggy window and not any chat channels

[Sharma]

Dont forget to put

"/mode $me +x" In perform.

Or if you are doing it manually you type "/mode <currentnick> +x"

/Edit: This changes your hostmask to "<Ident>@<Auth>.users.quakenet.org"

This prevents some nasty people from obtaining your IP and having their way with your computer.

who does that ?

[Darthshearer]

Its says the following for me

—› •Q• HELLO
-Q- You are already AUTH'd! You can't create a new account now.

What do I do? When I have #freddyshouse in my list to perform it dont let me, yet when I /j #freddyshouse it lets me

[Clown]

You might want to put /j #freddyshouse in the perform box.

[Darthshearer]

I have and it wont let me in. It says I need to be registerd

[FuzzyLogic]

That's where following SAS' original post comes in..the bit where he describes how to register

[SAS]

In my case once I auth it says I cannot join as I am not registered, BUT if I enter again it's ok (my connection is slow so maybe catching up with being registered or something).

If you do not have a Q account and it's saying you are auth It probably means someone has your username and already has a Q account?

Have you registered with Q? If so manual join the channel should do the trick?

[Clown]

It's just lag then.
Put the auth line higher up in the perform list, see if that helps.
