Hello,

I need to connect with
[irc.orpheus.network](https://irc.orpheus.network) and then join the
"disabled" channel. I am totally new to IRC. And have tried some on my
MacBook with no success. (I  downloaded XChat Azure for instance) I am
totally lost and frustrated. I have no idea what to do. I basically
cannot join that network. Can someone help me out?

Can't help you out with that particular network, but XChat Azure is
old and unmaintained, and you will almost certainly have issues when
using it. I would suggest finding a different IRC client that is still
under active development (Textual is around but is not free, there is
also an unofficial HexChat port for macOS on Mac Ports, or you may
find terminal-style clients like Weechat to be more your jam).

Maybe a web-based IRC client could serve you well, such as
[mibbit.com](https://mibbit.com) if you only want to get to one
particular server and channel.. it might be easier to just visit a web
site such as this, punch in the server, channel & nickname details,
and whala.. than to install an application if you're not particularly
techie. Just my 2 cents since I know nothing about macs.

This will get you all set.  I've used it for the past few years
without any issues:. http://www.kvirc.net/

No let’s figure this out - I just joined without any issues

disabled is for locked accounts - using a web client won’t help him.

The channel topic says to use your site name as your nick - id suggest
using example-site (or example-com) however they’d recognize it and an
alternate nick of site-account-name

They’re probably filtering out any messages etc that don’t match - but
have no idea what orpheus is..,

—- stay away from web clients - :)

Oldest question in the internet. "How do I irc?" It's so common we
grey breads wrote the book on it and hosted at
https://www.irchelp.org/faq/irctutorial.html

Also get a real irc client like irssi and use ssl connections along
with a bnc.

Googled dorked a bit and appears OP is trying to get on an irc server
for a 0day private bittorrent tracker.

Well then - a reason worthy of our help after all.
