Pidgin pissing me off...

ok i have registered, i recieved the email, i activated my account all going well... i installed Pidgin, got the purple plugin doodarr... got that working, entered my login details and this is what i keep recieving:
but i can logon to gamesurge.net fine, so it can't be a bad username...
any help will be much appreciated

in the advanced field of your irc account info, make sure that your username is the email address that you signed up to gamesurge with and not gatesmctaste.. also, double check the guide to make sure you are indeed entering the correct info as instructed

Game surge does not have a login, if you get that error my guess is you have the authname and password in the wrong field.
The password field in the basic tab should be empty
In the advanced tab it should have that info from your email in the fields Auth Name: and Nick Password.

Username and real name should be blank as well.

ty i found out what was wrong, i had capital letters in my username, apparently that causes a problem of some sort no idea what though so i created a new account using no caps and it seems to work.
