I hit this issue today while using my development environment. Freenode doesn't like my VPN and requires me to authenticate. So in order to test the bot locally, I have to turn off my VPN. Mildly annoying. It would be nice to fix this for v2.1.0.

Discussed in 2020-10-11 meeting.

@Zedjones is focusing on this one for the next sprint. Once this is completed, @Tjzabel will follow up with #131.

I can't immediately reproduce this on my machine. I have had issues with VPN services in the past, but I don't think there's anything we can do about that since they're just blocking a range of IPs. The only way we could get around that is if we allowed users to configure a proxy.

But in regards to the NickServ issue, it seems to successfully log in for me. I think we'll need more specific steps/scenarios to reproduce this reliably.

Discussed in 2020-10-25 meeting.

I need to retest with my connection via my VPN. I thought about this more after our meeting, and I will wait to retest until @Tjzabel completes #131. That will make it easier for me to test and triage this bug further.

I am no longer able to replicate this. The issue I had before was actually because my password required escaping certain characters. So, I was actually logging in, but somewhere along the way, my password was missing a character or something. 🤷🏻

After #355 and now being able to specify the NickServ username separately from the bot nick, I am unable to replicate. I am closing this issue out as wontfix and removing it from the project board. 🎬
