Please try to -NickServ- use obscure passwords that cannot be easily guessed. -NickServ- Passwords *ARE* case sensitive. Once you have -NickServ- registered a nickname, you can use the SET and -NickServ- ACCESS commands to configure it. -NickServ- -NickServ- Please IDENTIFY yourself to nickserv when you -NickServ- connect to the network. Many clients will allow you -NickServ- to automate this function. If you don't IDENTIFY -NickServ- to NickServ for a period of 60 days or more, your -NickServ- nickname will be considered to be expired and it -NickServ- may be dropped. for a list of all the commands for which help is available, use /msg nickserv help to Identify yourself to nickserv on join, if you are using Xchat, you can open the XChat->Server List menu, choose Freenode and click Edit. you'll see a field at the bottom where you enter your Nickserv Password, and it will auto-id you on join, without needing fancy scripts. just make sure you can remember your nickserv password, as there are other things you can/may use it for (linking two nicks together, for example: joe, and joe|away where both would not just be registered but would be linked together as you.) There's also a Memoserv on freenode.. '/msg memoserv help' for details :)
