Im no expert but I would say.....

Cookies
IP address

This would depend on what you mean by "identify a user".

Regarding loggin in?
A ban?

I would guess they have banned your ip or perhaps even a range including yours.
I believe you could also be banned by the software you use to access the chatroom (you would have downloaded this on your first visit.
