I'm getting Error #2031 and cannot connect to IRC. When I click on that code it just says "Disconnected from server." EDIT: I took no corrective action, but it's working again.
I got these errors all the time with the main web irc client offered on the website. Mibbit and hexchat work flawlessly. Hexchat in particular can be set t o transparency so u can forum/irc pvp w/o missing whats going on in game behind the irc.
one option is to use a real irc client. icechat is a reliable, free client. mirc imo is the best, but is no longer free forever.
