there is can be two possibilities

  • you are appending '/' before normal text like /hi
  • or you typing in tab other channel tab

You didn't mention which client are you using & when you get the error. so its really difficult to know where you are stuck.

I am using chatzilla as a example
when you connect, then you have to type in channel tab, which is named after the channel name.
like #digit

when you finish typing press enter & then it will appear on screen

whats the use?
is i correctly got your question you meant

Q. whats the use of the IRC?
Ans.
Well there are multiple uses
1) Like members can get fast solution of there problems.
2) Also it enables easy moderation of forums, as mods/admins can be
directly contacted.
3) Last and the main reason we would know each other more closely &
form a closely associated community.

also, if none the reasons appeal to you, then Please don't Join:)
