Banned from the IRC channel?
Started by Alice, 09 May 2013 - 01:17 PMPosted 09 May 2013 - 03:17 PM
I was just watching on the IRC channel, and I had to log off. So, as I was logging off, as I always do, I said Banhammer then I logged off. I was going to come on, and I tried to connect, but I had been banned. Can someone explain to me why I was banned?

Apparently: <TangentDelta> He was spamming and being annoying.
Posted 09 May 2013 - 03:27 PM
So anyway to get unbanned?

I've been banned quite a few times from the IRC channel. :P/> I normally just wait a bit till I'm unbanned. But you should query one on the ops on the channel(Cruor, Cloudy, TangentDelta, AfterLifeLochie) and discuss the ban with them.

Okay, I'll just go on with a different computer and ask :P/>

Oh really?
Ban evasion will only make it worse. I have seen entire IP ranges being banned to teach one person a lesson about obeying the rules.
If you feel that you need to skirt past the rules, then by all means, go right ahead.

i dont think its a good enough reason to be banned thoughPosted 09 May 2013 - 03:58 PM
My computer was taken. I thought I clearly stated that.

Almost ALL IRC servers have some sort of a nickname service. In Esper's case, it's NickServ. You would know this had you read The EsperNet Rules.My computer was taken. I thought I clearly stated that.
When you have that service available to you, you have the responsibility to control your nickname, and ensure that unauthorized access is not allowed. So when somebody uses your computer to do shenanigans on your behalf, it's generally your fault for not securing your own profile.

I was assaulted and my computer was TAKEN from me. How long until I get unbanned?
Posted 09 May 2013 - 04:10 PM
That's not the point i was making. You have options on every computer to lock your stuff, with a password for almost anything. What happens with your profile is your responsibility. You had the option of changing your password, or locking your computer witha password. Obviously, that didn't happen.
Posted 09 May 2013 - 04:11 PM
So while being assaulted while chatting with people, I am supposed to go through the procedure to lock my computer?
Posted 09 May 2013 - 04:17 PM
If it's a laptop, you can lock it easily by closing it. Default in Windows, is when closed, and a password is set up, it will re-open witha password prompt.
Either way, you can also access your IRC account from a webchat, and change the password in case you have it on the computer. What happens with your profile is your responsibility. It would be the same thing if your facebook account is left open at a computer store, and a bunch of people switched all your pictures to porn.
I don't know how long you're banned, as I'm not an IRC op. I didn't ban you.

You honestly expect us to believe this?
Posted 09 May 2013 - 04:22 PM
BTW, your forum IP and your IRC IP do still match. Am I to assume your assaulter politely returned your computer?
Posted 09 May 2013 - 04:24 PM
Well a IP address just means the same network. His attacker could've stole his computer and gone home with it while he is using a alternative computer to access the forums now.BTW, your forum IP and your IRC IP do still match. Am I to assume your assaulter politely returned your computer?
Posted 09 May 2013 - 04:28 PM
I was attacked, I was on the floor, he typed the stuff in, and gave it back. The last line he typed was 'And so was that'.
Posted 09 May 2013 - 04:29 PM
It's kinda like a very quick assassination attempt. Catch your enemy with surprise, knock him out of his chair, 'kill' him (Here, spamming) and the job is done.
Posted 09 May 2013 - 04:30 PM
That is the most…..pathetic excuse ever.I was attacked, I was on the floor, he typed the stuff in, and gave it back. The last line he typed was 'And so was that'.
Posted 09 May 2013 - 04:32 PM
How? He's a bully, what do you expect? Knock someone down, get them banned from their usual routine, and he is physically assaulted and can't continue with his daily routine.
Posted 09 May 2013 - 04:37 PM
You expect us to believe that? Did the assaulter get caught? And if you were knocked down, how did you continue to chat? Why did you not fight the assaulter? Call the cops? Just continued to chat?
Posted 09 May 2013 - 04:38 PM
So let me get this straight: You have been "assaulted" and the assaulter only wanted to type some random crap? Hmm.. ?
Just live on and come back later. Why do you make a big point of this. Your reason is silly as (….).
I mean, Im assuming now its just some brother or sister of yours who wanted to be annoying, because.. Why would you assault someone to type random crap?
Really, please come back when you are ready to accept that you cannot reverse this process, and maybe someone might eventually unban you..

I'm sorry. I just can't continue this anymore.
It's your account, your responsibility. You have adults that can save you from bullies. I don't care. Wait out your ban on IRC, like anybody else.
