I was banned from a Newnet irc.newnet.net server and I have NO idea why. I never cause any problems and just download Disney videos. Is there a way to contact anyone on this?

Thanks I am a newbie to this frown

Like thats not a contradiction--maybe they don't like people downloading copywrited material? It is steeling on many server's policies.

It doesnt matter if you do i dont think.... I think the whole channels on the server are for downloading

You didn't even notice it yourself, or you would have commented..

I was just curious about the network, so I tried it, and recieved this (below). It makes me think that it *wasn't* the identd causing the problem..? I don't really understand.
