I'm on a new computer. Whenever I try to use my old name, which has been registered already, the servers says: "the nickname Sgt. Silverburn belongs to an admin, please pick an other"

the qkey file is the file saying to the server that you really are sgt. silerburn and not another guy with the same nickname. when you change your computer, the qkey file is not the same than the old and he can't say to the server you're really sgt. silerburn...
so, go on your old computer and go find your qkey file. it is a hidden file (or it is IN a hidden folder)
if you have windows, open a folder, clic on "tools" (button before the "?" button) then clic on "folders options" then put ON "show hidden files"
now go in C:\Documents and Settings\youre name\Local Settings\Application Data\tremulous and search a bit your self.
if there isn't any tremulous folder here, show here: C:\Documents and Settings\your name\Application Data\tremulous and search a bit your self
then put it in the same place in your new computer...

PPNL says: When I am online I'll remove Your level 1 admin so you can register again

Sorry for the super late reply.

I just got myself a new name and then kinda forgot about this.
