# IRC Reference |
|

## Nick Management (NickServ) |

|
- Registers your current nick with NickServ with the chosen password and binds it to an e-mail address (optional). |
|
- `/ns identify password` |
|
- Identifies your nick to NickServ using the password you set. If you have a nick that's been registered, and you don't i |
|
- `/ns recover nickname password` |
|
- Kills (forcibly disconnects) someone who has your registered nick. |
|
- `/ns ghost nickname password` |
|
- Terminates a "ghost" IRC session that's using your nickname. |
|
- `/ns set password yournewpassword` |
|
- Changes your password. **NOTE:** Under no circumstances should you change your nick to the letter O followed by 8 digit |

## ChanServ commands |
|
|
|
All ChanServ commands begin with `/cs` or `/chanserv` or `/msg ChanServ`. Depending on your client and network, `/cs` or `/chanserv` may not work. I will use the shorthand in these examples. |
|

|
- Keeps everyone except aops, sops, and the founder from becoming ops. |
|
- `/cs set #channel keeptopic [on|off]` |
|
- Maintains the topic even if everyone leaves. |
|
- `/cs set #channel enforce [on|off]` |
|
- Restores op/halfop/voice if a person with op/halfop/voice gets de-opped/halfopped/voiced. |

# Other stuff |
|
|
|
## Kicking people |
|
|
|
- `/kick #channel nickname [reason]` |
|
- temporarily remove user from channel |
|
`/mode nickname +/-attributes [data]` |
|
- Setting people's modes (for current channel only) |
|
|
|
## User modes |
|
|
|
- `+q` |
|
- User is owner of the current channel (prefix ~ on UnrealIRCd, usually @ elsewhere) |
|
- `+a` |
|
- User is an admin (SOP) on the current channel (prefix & on UnrealIRCd, usually @ elsewhere). |

|
|
|
## Banning people |
|
|
|
- `/mode #channel +b hosts` |
|
- Hosts take the following form: `nickname!userid@hostname` |
|
- Use `/whois`, `/whowas` or `/who` to find the information necessary for a ban. |
|
- `*` is a wildcard and can replace `nickname`, `userid`, parts of nickname or `userid`, `hostname` or a segment of a `hostname`. |
|
|
|
## Examples: |
|
|
|
- `joe!*@*` |
|
- Will prevent anyone with the nick joe from joining. |
|
- `*myg0t*!*` |
|
- Will prevent anyone whose nick contains myg0t from joining. |
|
- `mark!*elc@*` |
|
- Will prevent anyone with the nick mark and the userid elc from joining. |
|
- `*!*@c-123-24-76-213.ga.isp.net` |
|
- Will prevent anyone with the host c-123-24-76-213.ga.isp.net from joining. |
|
- `*!*@*` |
|
- Bans everyone. Don't do that. |
|
|
