Registering your Nickname
- Choose a user name or nick. This user name should consist only of the letters from A-Z, the ciphers from 0-9 (but not as first character) and certain symbols such as "_" and "-". It may have a maximum of 16 characters. Please note that some nicknames are used internally and cannot be used. Also, please stay family friendly with your nicknames
- Change your user name to the user name you have chosen. Suppose you chose the nick "brownieboi". Type the following in the window above
/nick brownieboi
- Register your nick or user name. Type the following command and replace your_password with a password that will be easy to remember and replace email@address.com with your correct email address
/msg nickserv register your_password email@address.com
If you want your email address to remain private, use the following command:
/msg nickserv set hide email on - Register an alternate nickname using the same password. If you would like to register an alternate nickname, repeat the same procedure, using steps 2 to 3.
- Identify with Nickserv. Each time you connect, you should sign in, or "identify" yourself, using the following command:
/msg nickserv identify your_password
