Phoenix Network Forums

Hi, i'm new, can someone explain me what are the rules of this forum and how use the shell with putty?(network error connection refused)
also, i've tried to join the #phoenix channel but it tell me that i'm banned :S.
Sorry for my bad english ^^.

Phoenix shell is currently unavailable becose of server problems. Ask Tim if you want more information.
Now, about forum. To get shell account(when server works of course ) you need to have some non-flooding posts on forum(approximately 30, but i am not sure). Then you must contact Tim and ask him to create account. As i know, for now, Phoenix needs 160$ to be alive... So, we must wait ((((

thnx for the explain, what about the irc chat? is close?
^^

What on earth are you talking about?

Tim, what's wrong in what he said? can u answer my questions?

The quoted bit is completely wrong. Just read www.phoenix-network.org thoroughly, if you don't understand then perhaps this service isn't for you.

Oh for the record the server name is users.phoenix-network.org - for some reason a lot of people seem to miss that.

what about the ircchat?
EDIT i've read http://www.phoenix-network.org/ but there isn't write when we will be able to connect to the shell so for now nobody answered to the first question.

When you posted that there was an issue that would have been resolved ~5 mins after you experienced it. However since then we have come to have no funds as this is a free service and unfortunately the users of this service feel that there is no need to contribute to keep it going so we have lost our server.

If I see some actual gratefulness rather than this appalling attitude presented on these forums and in IRC I will consider bringing up a new server however, as before this comes directly from my pocket and that of my friends and the majority of the people who had accounts before really gave us no reason to continue this service.

Is there a ban reason specified? I don't see your IP listed in the channel bans. It could help us look into the issue if you provide us information about your connection and ip/proxy/vhost/ident/nick which you're trying to connect with on IRC.

do a whois of yourself and tell us the (masked) host, ident and nickname. Then we can check what ban might trigger on you.

Yup, you should change your identd. It collides with an ban which has been set to prevent some spammers.

Well, that question was not one which would be answered by the FAQ. He can't possible know which ban shuts him out. Of course knowing the nature of bans better will make you able to pass almost any ban, but well... such persons arent that many luckily .

De Kus: if you are op on #phoenix you can set -V and then invite me on the channel so i can see what is the ban that block my access
