IRC

[Orbanaz]

I can't connect to IRC all of a sudden. The only way I know how to do so is by clicking the link on the top left of the UOSA webpage.

When I try I get this message:

[14:43:59] Trying to reconnect...
[14:43:59] Connection established. Please wait...

[14:47:45] Closing Link: Orbanaz by Pirates.MI.US.WildIRC.Net (G-lined)

Any help would be appreciated.

Sounds like a block of IP addresses might have been blocked for some reason or another . Follow links .. or Contact Hollywood Directly via forums.

Other then that try again in a few hours. Looked like short term bulk IP ban.

Hmmm I followed all the links and emailed both places it said to try for help, and sent Hollywood a PM on here, but I don't know if it's the same one since the Hollywood here has 0 posts.

This is still driving me nuts.

Hollyw00d on Irc, not these forums.

He is not affiliated with UOSA.

Ah, that makes sense, but if I can't access IRC at all, how would I contact him. Chaos recommended directly via the forums so I assumed he meant these forums. lol oops.

I am assuming the correct forums to use would be these.

Your gateway is acting as a tor node, which is a sort of anonymous internet usage system.

These systems are regularly used by pirates (yarrr!) and hackers (*nosebleed*) to allow people to try and get away with things on the internet. Like abusing the RIAA (*bling bling*) etc..
