Thread: IRC Identification

MrCoolBoy on the IRC told me this today. You know when you have to type:

/msg nickserv identify password



After joining an IRC server

You can instead just type:

/identify password

I know it's a little thing LOL but I found it useful and thought I'd post :)

lol.
this is nothing to do with t-i

you need to do it for the following reason
/msg nickserv identify password

msg = Private message/query

NickServ = Name of Service which Handles NickNames

IDENTIFY = Telling NickServ that it is needed to IDENTIFY a NickName

Password = Really, you don't know what this is..

It can't be done.
if you don't like typing it make an auto script

/ns is an ailias for /msg nickserv so you can do
"/ns identify pass"

Well, only /identify pass worked fine so... I dunno why you have to write the other 12-13 chars :) LOL maybe I'm TOO lazy (I know I'm lazy) :)

Or you can set it up to automatically identify you when you connect to irc ;)

I'm with Rock3r on this. No point arguing against smthn thats been proven to work. Or at least test it first before claiming it doesn't work/can't be done. It only takes a couple secs to test.
/identify pass works on this network so i'm guessing it must also be an alias for /msg nickserv identify
Since i tried it and it does work, I'll definitely be using it in the future, so thanx for the tip Rock3r/MCB.
