Registering your nickname
Type the following commands to register your nickname:
/msg NickServ REGISTER password valid@email.address
The email address must be a valid email address you can use, and password must be a valid password (i.e., it cannot be your nickname or less than 5 characters long).
Mibbit Users: Creating an account at Mibbit does not mean that you have registered on Xertion. Nick registration on Xertion is completely different and not affiliated with Mibbit in any way.- After issuing that command, an email will be sent with a confirmation code to your email address. Copy and paste the codes within 24 hours from your email address you just registered to complete the registration process; otherwise the nick will be available for others to register:
/msg NickServ CONFIRM ConfirmationCodeFromEmail
Now that you have registered your nickname, you can request a vHost or register a channel.
Troubleshooting
Wrong Email
If you entered a wrong email address in your nick registration, you can issue the following command and then re-register your nickname:
/msg NickServ CANCEL password
(Where password
is the password you used to register your nick before.)
Lost Password
Expired Nick
Registered nicks will expire after 60 days of inactivity; i.e., you must IDENTIFY
the nickname before the expiration date:
/msg NickServ IDENTIFY password
(Where password
is the password you used to register your nick before.)
