Hello
For assistance beyond the contents of this email, please join and ask #oftc.
Some of the Tor IRC channels on OFTC are protected from unregistered
nicks from joining as an anti-spam measure.
The nick "Lashuk" is not registered with NickServ.
To join #tor-dev (and #tor-project, and some others...), you need to
1. Register your nick with nickserv
/msg nickserv help register
After confirming there was no errors ...
2. Verify your nick at https://services.oftc.net
- Click login in the top right
- Login with the credentials you created in (1)
- Click Account at the top
- Click Verify on the left
- Solve a captcha
After confirming there was no errors ...
3. Tell nickserv you've verified your nick
/msg nickserv checkverify
If this works, your nick will gain +R mode
and can join #tor-dev (and others)
In the future when you connect to OFTC, you will only need to do
/msg nickserv identify YourPassword YourNick
