      Hi,

technical issue, I post again here.

Can someone explain me why I got this when trying to join Wikimedia
IRCchannels ?
I can't see anything on the ban list, which could be a ban for your
hostmask. Could you try joining #wikipedia? There are no bans there.
Also, what's your hostname? PM me when you'll connect to the server
(my nick's Datrio).
I was told that I was banned because I use Tor.
However I DO NOT use Tor to connect to IRC and Wikimedia channels and I have
 a registred nick. Therefore I really don't understand why I am banned.
Thanks,
Yann
