Bug Description
ibid currently joins all channels immediately after connecting. Some channel modes require the bot to be authed with nickserv before being allowed to join the channel, and as a result the bot never successfully joins these channels.
A quick fix is to add the channel to the AJOIN list, but not all IRC services support this feature.
Proposed solution: Remember which channels the bot failed to join. After authenticating with nickserv, attempt to join these failed channels again.

I'd suggest only joining channels after authenticating. On Freenode your
IP/hostname is only masked after authenticating, so if you join channels
before authenticating then that gets leaked.
