I'm not sure if this is the correct section to ask this. Move this topic if the Sandbox is the wrong place, please.
How do I use the IRC? I click on "Chat" and I'm asked for a StarNet IRC nickname and some other stuff. What is it and how do I use it?
Thanks in advance for the help.

You can type in any name you want there.
I'm not sure if #smbx is still set to registered only (spam attacks bla bla), but if so, you need to register your nickname:
/ns register *e-mail* *password*
^^ will register your current username
/ns identify *password* when using said username will log you in if you're not logged in already.
The button below the username field just asks you whether or not you want to automatically login.

Also, /ns identify <password> will identify you when you are using your name but you haven't logged in your account (this command will also make you login automatically).
By the way, it's better to use a client (for example hexchat or chatzilla) so you don't always have to type your password when joining starnet.

All you have to enter is a nickname - this is your display name for the chat. After that, it will connect you to the IRC network and you'll automatically join the SMBX room (#smbx).

I don't understand that. What do you mean?
Something like a timetable in my sig?

Don't worry about what Nien said, it's not relevant.

So I was trying to be funny, but I got banned because I looked like a spambot. RIP in pieces ShieGie68
Is there actually any way to get unbanned?

It should be about 15 minutes long if I'm not mistaken. Or Jason or Joey will see that and unban you. Whichever comes first.

I unbanned you. Sorry about that! Jason is currently doing some work on Xanos.
