Mirc Gamesurge Auth Problem

SaltzBadSaltzBad Join Date: 2004-02-23 Member: 26833Members
Problem :
#nspug requires authing to join nowadays, due to this whole bot crap.

A user cannot for the life of him seem to create an authserve account. We've tried to give him the exact syntax to create one, but he never quite manages.

Question :
a) Could someone post the exact syntax and potential problems with creating an authserv account? I have one, and haven't tried to make a new one as it works just fine.

b) Could someone else make him an authserv account and just tell him the email/pass to put in his perform (or manually send) ?


This is kind of desperate, as said person has alot of #nspugging to do, and seemingly alot of technical ineptness to boot <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    <b>-AuthServ- REGISTER</b>
    -AuthServ- /msg AuthServ@Services.GameSurge.net REGISTER <account> <password> [email]
    -AuthServ- Registers a specified account with AuthServ, adding your current user@host to your new account. You must the password you specify with register to use auth to authenticate to your account.
    -AuthServ- If you specify an email address, an email will be sent to it containing a cookie that will let you activate your account. Once you have that cookie, you must use the cookie command to be able to use your account.
    -AuthServ- See Also: auth, unregister

    <b>-AuthServ- COOKIE</b>
    -AuthServ- /msg AuthServ@Services.GameSurge.net COOKIE <account> <cookie>
    -AuthServ- Completes the maintenance action (for example, activating an account or changing your password) for which a cookie was issued. The cookie will then be forgotten.
    -AuthServ- See Also: authcookie, resetpass, set, delcookie

    <b>-AuthServ- AUTH</b>
    -AuthServ- /msg AuthServ@Services.GameSurge.net AUTH [account] <password>
    -AuthServ- Authenticates yourself with AuthServ to the specified account. You must use auth before you have any access to network services, including channels that are registered with ChanServ.
    -AuthServ- If you omit the account, it uses your current nick as your account name.

    If he still can't it working, PM me on Gamesurge (coil) and I'll set up an account for him.

    Must...not...bash...mIRC. But seeing how a fanboy war is irrelevant to your question, yeah coil pretty much layed it out for you.

    seeing how mIRC has little or nothing to do with authing with Gamesurge, its a bloody good thing you didn't start up, or i woulda REALLY rolled you.

    I didn't check support, and calling it mIRC (instead of IRC) was a 5 freaking AM slip of the finger, back off. I realize that to authing the type of client used should hardly matter.

    Anyway, thanks coil and the spectre - thats exactly what I needed, something accurate to point to and say "do this" <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> (And I already have an account, but thanks for the "My uh.. unnamed friend has a problem with getting an erection" klischee <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo--> [edit : That remark was for spectre.
