IRC Issues

Post by angelstar107 »

Ok, I think I can offically say someone is out to get me.

As I would discover today, I am unable to connect to irc.esper.net. Why you ask (Though most of you probably don't particularly care)? I have no idea.

To investigate the issue, I opened my status window, only to discover this:

[23:58] *** Creating connection "Starlight"
[23:58] *** :dream.esper.net -irc.esper.net- *** Looking up your hostname...

[23:58] *** Error: Closing Link: 0.0.0.0 (You are banned from this network, contact kline@esper.net for more information (2005/07/14 13.02))

Fun, isn't it? I finally get to use IRC for something only to get banned for it for no reason. I've only logged into MithraPride three times >< I mean... 3 fricken days is all I had. What on earth could I have done...?

Well, I email kline@esper.net like I was supposed to, and now I await an answer. -.- in the mean time, Starlight will not be in IRC. As my luck holds, I can predit that I will not be allowed to return -.-; so thank you to Firemyst and Ramza for making me feel like I actually belonged somewhere...

Probably you got the same IP address as somebody who raised enough of a fuss on esper.net that they banned the IP from the servers completely. And then you got a different IP.

Judging from the netmask, you're on a broadband connection, so it's a fair bet.

Possibly, though I'm not entirely sure. The only way to reset the IP Address on a broadband connection is to reset the router. During the whole time I was on the AKill list, the router was never reset, so the IP Address was the exact same when it let me on. :?: confused am I...

Ah well... Here's hoping it never happens again.

it can be. There are 2 parts. IP and ISP. If an ISP Kline is done that can cause severe problems for others who have a similiar IP/ISP aswell

Got an e-mail from Klein, the guy that apparently runs irc.esper.net, about the ban. I sent him the info and asked what the deal was.

Apparently, I was banned for being involved in a cross-channel "skit" that annoyed many people in the channel.

First off, if this is the case, how the hell did I do it? Does this even make sense to anyone?

He also said he lifed the ban, yet the ban remains in effect -.- I swear to god that somone is setting me up
