d-linked and rejected on my first attept

Postby kolleksiyoncu » Thu Jun 28, 2007 7:39 pm

Hi,
I tried to join 5 efnet irc servers but i was rejected from all of them. (d-linked on one without reason)
Why can it be happening? How can I prevent this?

Why is that? Doesn't sound fair.

because of the vast quantities of spambots originating from that network.

i believe that /16 is dlined on almost every server because of this. you could get an IRC bouncer to work around this.

if you google for bouncer providers you will find alot, and probably in your country too so that you keep your ping as low as possible.

Note that those aren't free - but usually they aren't expensive.
