whilst trying to not get into some shit legal debate about this i think you'll find that the Computer Misuse Act 1990 states;

Quote:
"The only precondition to liability is that the hacker should be aware that the access attempted is unauthorized. Thus, using another person's username or identifier (ID) and password without proper authority to access data or a program, or to alter, delete, copy or move a program or data, or simply to output a program or data to a screen or printer, or to impersonate that other person using e-mail, online chat, web or other services, constitute the offence.
http://www.opsi.gov.uk/acts/acts1990...00018_en_1.htm if your interested.

and CBA, considering your were only in the urwins channel for 10 minutes preceding the incident you refer to and were kicked 10 minutes after it id hardly say you were an authority on the issue which went down pretty much exactly as jedi says.
