Hey

I've been on a channel successfully for a while but now can't get on. If I can connect there's only me there but I know other people are on because I have other ways of contacting them to see what's going on.

I have a message MOTD is missing in the loading script, and I don't know if it was there before or not, but I thought it might be relevant. Other servers either won't connect or if they do it's only me there!

Please help if you can

Thanks

are you sure youre always connecting to correct network ?

MOTD has nothing to do with script :P
MOTD is Server/Network side and doesnt have anything with your problem... (coz its just some crap message displayed when you connect)

or youre on wrong network or network has net-split problems
and some servers may be desynched from others (which would explain why you dont see others)

either way, ask your friends to give you exact name
of server on which they are on and connect to IT directly
by typing the full name of server instead of general network adress

Yeah well that's the strange thing. I'm not doing anything different to what I was doing before! Just same old thing but it's not happening anymore. Thanks anyway. I get timed out or only me on etc.

Might be something to do with not being wired and beng on a router ... I just read that post. I'll see if being wired makes a diff...

:P

b'coz if you only hit connect button on mirc
sometime it happens that mirc screws things up
and doesnt connect you to last server you connected
(happened to me before few times)

thats why i wrote to check if youre connecting to correct
network and to check server name with your friends
