To protect your username and permit access to additional privileges, we suggest you create an IRC account.
To protect your username and permit access to additional privileges, we suggest you create an IRC account.
<br />'''1'''. Connect to the IRC channel
<br />'''2'''. Select a password which you will remember but is not used anywhere else. Then type <code>/nickserv register ''password'' ''email''</code> where password and e-mail are replaced with that password of your choosing and an e-mail address you have access to. Be aware that your e-mail can by default be seen by other users. There is a way to hide it, but this is not done automatically.
:::For example, you would enter <code>/nickserv register MyPassword17 me@example.com</code> if your password is "MyPassword17" and your e-mail address is "me@example.com"
'''3'''. Check your e-mail. In a little while, a confirmation message should arrive. This can take several hours or just a few minutes. It will contain a confirmation code.
<br />'''4'''. Using the code in the email message, enter: <code>/nickserv CONFIRM ''ConfirmationCode''</code> (replacing "ConfirmationCode" with the code sent to your e-mail).'''Note: The directions in the confirmation message may be incorrect! Make sure to do it this way'''
:::For example, enter <code>/nickserv CONFIRM 504858356</code> if the confirmation code e-mailed to you is "504858356"
'''5'''. You are now registered! Log in using the directions below at least once every 30 days to keep your account active.
