    Attempted to log in to IRC to kill a few hours, and it stated I was banned from the server. Was curious as to why, or what warranted it, as I haven't even frequented things as of late. I was able to freely log in a month or so ago, and left of my own volition, so can only assume I was banned after my departure, for some reason.

    If it was a simple miscommunication, that's perfectly fine. If I somehow did something to warrant it despite not even talking, that's fine as well, I suppose. Guess I'm just asking if it was intentional or not.

    I used to use the mIRC client when I logged in, but I used the mibbit link at the top the last time, yeah. I need to pick up a key for mIRC to use it again, my trial ran out.

    I see. Why would the IRC link at the top of the site use a banned client? Ah, whatever. I'll just need to obtain mIRC key in some form, I suppose. Thanks, Tehan.

    Try it again. mIRC being expired just means it bitches at you for a while before starting up as per normal.

    So it would appear. I just stabbed it a few times until it worked. Thanks.

    DLP used to use a java-based IRC web-client (jirc IIRC) which was awful. mibbit's a lot better than it, so presumably Raven made the switch. Unfortunately people have been abusing it to spam #darklordpotter as of late, so it's been banned.

    You could try XChat. So much less crap than mIRC. Did I mention it's free? :awesome

    Or you could use Chatzilla which has an awesome DLP theme and is also free.

    Or you could get in on the beta for IRCCloud, which is like mibbit, but only a million times better.
