Cannot join (+r); however I *am* registered.

I am new to IRC, and want to learn as I am migrating to Linux; a lot
of support is via IRC.

As you can see in the linked image, I cannot connect to #archlinux on
freenode.

This occurs on both Mango^2 on my iPhone and irssi on my Mac.

I am using my registered nick, email validated with ENFORCE on.

I have this identifying me on login; this can be confirmed in the
background of the linked image.

I have tried searching for this online, the only suggestion is to
register with NickServ. I have *already* done this.

Can anyone suggest what is wrong with this? or link me to a possible
solution?

Your client is sending an identify command and then a join command
immediately after, your auto identify is working, yes, but services
are not on the server you're on so there's a lag, you can /join
#archlinux manually after connect and identifying, however having
autojoin on, after you identify may not always work.

I did not use the auto-join feature.

For some strange reason my account now "wasn't registered"; even
though I tried only an hour ago.

I re-registered and tried from irssi, and I could connect. *Strange.*

Pretty sure this is freenode... is it possible that you hadn't
verified your email address by following the instructions in your
email inbox?

I did. Both originally, and just again now when I re-registered.

Even though nickserv says you are identified, make sure you are truly
identified by /WHOIS'ing yourself. The IRCd will also send a "You are
not logged in as x" message in addition to what NickServ sends you.

Like rdv said, there simply could have been some lag when you were
identifying, and your identified state could have not been pushed to
all of freenode's servers yet.
