Fistly, never post your email address on a public forum. Believe it or not there are hundreds, if not thousands of computers out there visiting every webpage known to man looking for e:mail addresses to add to their spam list.

To answer your question, if you are others you know belong to a group that runs a shoutcast server (online radio station), and perhaps your wearing the same tag, or have a older.younger sibling that is in a group of this natue and shares your ip this may be the case. Unfortunatly, clans decide they want to join random channels, advertise their channel to get "idlers" then part rapidly--and a lot of channels despise this. To safeguard against users doing it again, they ban the user--and this might be your case.

If you feel you dont fall under this category, try typing /names #channel and looking for an operator in the channel. PM them and ask them why u were banned. You may also look for the channel owners name under the /chanserv info #channel command.

Well i can see someone banning my but i can not connect to IRC as a hole, I would not mine if it was just a channel, well plz respond to this soon thank you, this is what it says again:
[6:49am] ERROR > 465: Illegal Radio Channel Advertising.

Raw 465 is a k:line so yep, you are banned. There's two ways to get it removed and both usually take a long time.

1. Email the administrator of the server and get clarification on how long the ban has before it expires.
2. Wait.

Inline with Kingtomato's response, indeed you may not have done anything wrong and may simply be affected by a wide ranging ban.

Well i can i get the admin's password or do you know how long i will be banned day hour mins year month?

I trust that you mean email address...

You need to visit the website that is owned by the network you want to log into and get the email address from there. After that you write to them and ask about the ban. No-one else would be in possession of that sort of information.

If you get on another server in the same network, then type:

/admin the.server.you.want.to.know.the.admin.off

and it should give you the name of the admin of that server, and often also a e-mail address or how to contact him.. or try google and search for the server there, then you should find the webpage for that network/server and there find where to ask about your k-line..

Look in the MOTD of the network you're trying to connect to. You haven't said which network it is, so how can anyone help?

Gamesnet website.

GO TO [url=HTTP://WWW.GAMESNET.NET/][url=HTTP://WWW.GAMESNET.NET/][url=HTTP://WWW.GAMESNET.NET/][url=HTTP://WWW.GAMESNET.NET/]HTTP://WWW.GAMESNET.NET/[/url][/url][/url][/url] AND GET THE ADMIN'S EMAIL ADDRESS AND WRITE TO THEM AND ASK THEM WHY THE BAN IS THERE.

WE DO NOT KNOW WHY AND CANNOT KNOW WHY. ONLY THE GAMESNET ADMINISTRATOR CAN TELL YOU!

Do you understand that?

Posted By: Collective Re: ERROR Illegal Radio Channel - 21/09/03 05:26 PM
I can't find the emails, and I can't be bothered to look for them harder. GamesNet have a forum for g-lines and k-lines, ask there.

to the left on the www page you have a link: Contact Us
klick the link, then type your question there, and i think you should add the info: your IP adress, your host mask, and the error.. "copy and paste the text that the server sends to you when you trying to connect"
