Register with NickServ
You can register a nickname with NickServ on our IRC host. That way, you can ensure that you'll always be able to use your own nick!

To register, all you have to do is to write a simple command while you're in the IRC.
/msg NickServ REGISTER password [e-mail]
Enter a password of your choice but keep in mind it's case-sensitive (Password and passWord are not the same)! An email address is not required but can be added if you want. It's good if you lose your password, or there's any issues like that that come up.

To log in to your newly created account, you just need to identify with NickServ:
/msg NickServ IDENTIFY password
Use the same password as the one you registered with! Remember, it is case-sensitive!
Most clients also feature automatic identification. XChat for instance has a "NickServ password" input field on the Network options window - just enter your password and XChat will do the identification for you!

You can also reserve multiple nicknames with NickServ. Change to the nick you want to add and tell NickServ
/msg NickServ GROUP groupname password
where groupname is a nickname you have already registered.

There are a few other interesting NickServ commands, check /msg NickServ help for more information.


Other tidbits

People frequently ask how to change their nickname when they already are connected. It's easy!
/nick newname
where newname is the name you want to have. For example, "/nick Potato" will rename you to "Potato". Keep in mind you cannot have whitespaces in your nickname, so "/nick Potato Chips" will result in "Potato" as well!

Another nice thing which can be fun is the action command.
/me does something
will print a line "user does something" where "user" is your current nickname.

Just keep in mind not to overuse these so other users don't get annoyed!
Tsunami Bomb - The Simple Truth
We could run away
Leave behind anything paper
Not knowing where we're going to stay
When there's no Mondays

You're part of me, it's so easy to see the simple truth
When I'm in your arms, I feel safe from harm and sorrow too
You're part of me, it's so easy to see the simple truth
But most of all, nothing couldn't be solved when I'm with you
