You have been kicked from the IRC because you tried to send a very big chunk of
text (torrc file), you 'll be better using a paste service such as the Debian
pastezone (https://paste.debian.net).

> how do i get back to the chat ? ive never used irc :(

You can use an IRC client to connect to (ircs://irc.oftc.net:6697) or OFTC's
webchat (https://www.oftc.net/WebChat). You can find more information on OFTC's
website (https://www.oftc.net/).

Your torrc file doesn't seem right, please have a look at the Tor relay guide
technical setup
(https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/TorRelayGuide#Parttwo:technicalsetup)
and the platform specific intstructions on how to setup a relay
(https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/TorRelayGuide#PlatformspecificInstructions)

Also logs are your friend you should be able to figure out possible
configuration by reading the logfiles of your system (by default syslog).

Please send more specific information about your system and ita underlying
distribution/operating system running.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
~Vasilis
