Again, people who have been "banned" from #bunnies, see inside... →[More:]

You're using Chatzilla, right?

Go to Tools > Options. Under Global Settings > General, find the field for Identity > Description.

Remove the default text and replace it with fascinating text of your choosing. You should now be able to connect.

And for the record, this is a problem with Slashnet. No one here has been specifically banned since this all started.

Thank you for posting this again. It happened to me last night and I couldn't find this info in any of the posts (though it really might have been under my nose). Thankfully, SassHat knew your wisdom and was able to help me. Help you, help me.

Thanks SuperPup!

Ummmm... I don't have a Tools menu. Help?

Occhiblu, you've opened Chatzilla and don't have a tools menu, or you can't open Chatzilla because you can't open #bunnies?

You can get to Chatzilla through Firefox by doing [Firefox] Tools > Chatzilla....

Does that help?

I can walk you through it here or via email. Whatever's easier for you.

I've opened Chatzilla, and don't have a Tools menu.

I'm currently in IRC with Java.

Chatzilla menu, Preferences seems to be correct (with current versions).
