Comment (by reinierpost):

 This is still an issue today. I'm using the current Pidgin (2.10.12) on
 Windows 8.1.
 With over 10 channels open, reconnecting fails due to ''excess flood''.

 Arguably, this is a freenode bug, as I'm not actually flooding on any
 channels (in fact I'm not sending any messages to them at all), but the
 only reason for me to install Pidgin is to use it as an IRC client for
 freenode, so it would be really nice if this were fixed on the Pidgin
 side.
