Both Mibbit and coldfront are working fine, however it appears that one of the mibbit IP addresses(es) has been firewalled from using irc.colfront.net. However directly connecting to any of the coldfront servers will still work:

storm.coldfront.net - Central USA
ice.coldfront.net - Europe (NL)
subzero.coldfront.net - USA
frozen.coldfront.net - USA

Alternatively you could simply use a standard IRC client instead of Mibbit.

This isn't a Trukz bug, it involves mibbit.. :P

If you go to mibbit.com , it works from there :P

yes i know im on mibbit and mibbit has repoeted it to coldfront (irc)

Mmmm it was working a moment ago, it seems that Coldfront are aggressively trying to stop any Mibbit connections.

The alternatives still stand, you can use a regular client such a mirc, *!%@$x, irssi or maybe something like ChatZillap if you use firefox as a brower.

A Java based client is also a possibility, Coldfront provide a PJIRC client here for everyone to use. I may set up a (totally unofficial) pjirc client specifically for Trukz users if Mibbit is still on the chopping block in a couple of days.

If anyone needs any help setting up the above clients then please feel free to PM me on here, in the game or simply reply to this topic. I'll try my best to help :)

Unless a trigger happy script has kicked in, then Coldfront has done it intentionally.
