You'll need to tell us what you're talking about here.

Assuming it's IRC, there's nothing you can do. There are no real rules on irc; there's plenty of accepted etiquette, and if you violate that than you may well be kicked. The general ruleslessness of it all means that anyone who cares to and has ops can just kick you on a whim - That's IRC.

If you're using some Internet connection software that lets people kick you off at will, then you're living in the past. You need to switch to alternate methods. You didn't give much information in your post, so I can't say any more than this for the moment.

I'm pretty sure he meant an IRC channel.

I was under the impression that it's still quite common to be able to boot people off of AOL at will, even in this year 2002.

It was never possible for the common folk.

Err, I think there are programs used for doing so, or for email accounts any way.
