    billymg: dorion: ty, fixed
    
    billymg: asciilifeform, or anyone else in here who might know: how can i get out of this loop? "cannot OP yourself, channel is not registered" -> "must be channel OP to register channel"
    
    billymg: it looks like i should have registered the channel immediately after first joining
    
    billymg: wondering if there's any other way to get around this aside from the recommended "/join #services for assistance"
    
    dorion: billymg, with all the dramaz lately on here about user dataz, think they'll kyc you ? ;p
    
    billymg: dorion: i don't see why they'd want anything beyond my email
    
    dorion: me neither, but insanity also knows no bounds.
    
    asciilifeform: billymg: iirc /msg ChanServ OP #channelname yournick worx in such cases
    
    asciilifeform: (instead of /mode +o yournick)
    
    billymg: asciilifeform: yeah, that's the command that gave me "Channel #billymg is not registered."
    
    billymg: and when i try to register, "you are not OP"
