OK, I'll be brief, because I know my usual long posts annoy people. I seem to have a problem logging into IRC. It was working fine for me just now, when I was mysteriously disconnected; I can't remember exactly why, but now when I try to connect, I recieve these messages:

irc.freenode.net - *** No identd (auth) response
-
[GSF]Terraxos nickname is already in use.
-
JOIN Register first.

...And then some other irrelevant stuff. I don't suppose anybody has a clue what's going on here, or can tell me what to do to fix it? I wouldn't usually mind, it's just that I only remembered about the coolness of the IRC channel yesterday, and was planning to log on more often in future. This problem makes that somewhat less likely, which I'm sure most people don't care about but does slightly annoy me.

Any help would be appreciated.

Try using another nick when you log in first, see if that works.

Ah, that does seem to work. I probably should have been able to think of that for myself... just shows how inept I am with technology, I guess. Thanks for the help, and sorry for wasting everyone's time.

Identd doesn't really matter at all, so don't worry about it.
