Yes, it's quite popular to just ban - mostly colorful notice appears, once you press that button. Really cool stuff.
It would be nice, if you had some kind of guide how to use IRC client in oder to reach your channel, instead of telling people: "I do not know. It works for me." Not my business, but in my opinion it's better not to post at all. Another thing, it's quite rare to meet someone evincing that minimum of self-help.
