Are you using the development (0.17.x) client? It has a bug regarding players that connect to IRC for the first time. Try this release:
https://ci.appveyor.com/api/buildjobs/a0yn5tyffw4fgaaq/artifacts/dist%2FForged%20Alliance%20Forever-0.17.3-win32.msi

No i use the latest "old" version. I'll try that one


UPDATE

Maybe there's another bug where we don't continue with identification. Could you try again after restarting the client?

[L_i_v_e]

restarted multiple times, now it works, thanks
