Re: [solved] banned from irc freenode chan?

i receive eveywhere
"Disconnected (Remote host closed socket)"
apart on the *debian ch.
first time on freenode a few days ago
and i am only allowed
to read and post in *debian ?
IS it a miracle a feature or a nasty bug?

Apparently "ghost" nicks are fairly common on IRC.  A quick Google search for "freenode ghost" found this:
NickServ Is Your Friend
See the section titled "Regaining Control of a Nick".
(By the way, I never use IRC, but when you mentioned "ghosted" the search terms were too obvious for me to ignore.)
