The Nickserv is down-when I tried manually joining #monitor it said
address is banned....whats with that??

Update...although the maximum nick length on ZIRC is 32 characters,
#monitor channel admin has placed a ban on nicks longer than nine
characters to keep the spambots out of the channel.

If your nick is nine characters or less you're okay, ten or more and
you'll get "address is banned".
