Well Harryy inspired me to make this tutorial for new people using mIRC. Basically he was talking in the channel with 50+ people to only 1 specific person, and when I responded to him, he used his non-english made-up-language and said 'myob'. After urbandictionary.com (http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=myob)'ing it, I found out it meant 'mind your own business'. So instead of letting that happen again, I will teach you guys how to Private Message in mIRC and many more things.

How to use Auth
Intro: Auth (or authentification) is a system used in all IRC Servers. They are mainly used for op's and voice (administrators). What this system does is allows you to register a nickname. This way when your nickname is registered, only YOU can use it. So if you are granted administrative powers on a channel, no random person can come into the channel with your name and use the admisitrative powers.
1. change your nickname to the one you wish to auth by typing "/nick <new name>"

2. Type in the following command: "/msg nickserv register <your-password> <your-email>"
http://i91.photobucket.com/albums/k307/footbrawler03/auth2.jpg
3. Lastly, complete the registration process by following the instructions sent to your email.

4. Next time you join the server, type "/msg NickServ identify <your pass>" in order to log in. (to automatically log in, refer to the How to use Preform section)
How to use Preform
Intro: Preform is the term given to mIRC automatically executing commands when you connect to a server (in our case, Freenode). What we want it to do is join the #srl channel and auth (authenticate) your nickname.
1. Click "Select Server"

2. Choose "Options" then "Preform"
http://i91.photobucket.com/albums/k307/footbrawler03/preform2.jpg
3. Add the lines "/join #srl" and "/msg NickServ identify <your password>"
http://i91.photobucket.com/albums/k307/footbrawler03/preform3.jpg
General Rules - Note, these are not offical rules. Just general rules on how to act.
1. Do not use 1337 speak or abriviations such as 'u' for 'you'.
2. Respect each other - makes the community a better place.
3. Do not spam (or flood) the channel.
Thanks for reading, hope this helps new users.
