  2. Navigate to your profile -> API Keys -> Manage IRC Key section.
  3. Click Generate Key (this will create a unique authentication key for IRC).
  4. Copy the generated key, as you will need it in the next step.

Generating IRC Key

Connect to IRC Rizon and Authenticate

Each time you connect to IRC, you must authenticate using your IRC key.

  1. Log in to NickServ with your IRC password:
plaintext
/msg NickServ IDENTIFY yourpassword

Message Korrok for an Invite

Once you are identified, you need to message Korrok to request an invite. You can use the following formats to request an invite:

plaintext
/msg korrok !invite yourGeneratedKey
  • Assumes your IRC nick matches your site username.
  1. Format 2: !invite website_username yourGeneratedKey
plaintext
/msg korrok !invite website_username yourGeneratedKey

Korrok will verify your identity and invite you to the appropriate channel.

You can then join the channel

plaintext
/join #nzbs.in
  1. If you don’t get an invite, check if:
    • You have successfully identified with NickServ.
    • You are using the correct generated IRC key.
    • You are not banned or restricted.
