For more information about usernames and how to determine a person's username, refer to the VERIFY and INFO commands (level 0). * All commands shown with the field can also work by specifying a user's IRC nickname that they are online with by preceding their nickname with an equal (=) sign. For example, consider a person with the nickname ^[Test]^ and username Test. The ACCESS command can be performed on this user in either of these 2 methods: 1. /msg x access <#channel> Test or 2. /msg x access <#channel> =^[Test]^ The 1st method directly queries X as to whether or not the username "Test" is in the userlist. The 2nd method makes X lookup ^[Test]^'s username if they are authenticated, which refer's to their username of "Test." This can be performed with any command that requires a , but will only work if the user is authenticated, otherwise a "No Match" reply or equivalent will be returned. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LEVEL 500 Commands : Channel Manager -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PART - Makes X leave your channel. /msg x part <#channel> SET - Changes special X modes for channel. /msg x set <#channel> * Variables and Values: AUTOJOIN - When the flag is set ON, it makes X always join your channel. When the flag is OFF, it will make it part if it's on the channel, and not re-join after a netsplit. /msg x set <#channel> autojoin MASSDEOPPRO - The maximum number of deops X will allow in a 15 sec period. Any user exceeding this will be kicked, suspended (if on the userlist) and a level 25 ban placed on them to prevent ops. The suspend and ban time is 5 minutes. When setting the MASSDEOPPRO, value can be set from 1, which is the most sensitive, to 7, which is least sensitive. A value of 0 turns off the option. /msg x set <#channel> massdeoppro <0-7> NOOP - This means that nobody may be a channel operator except X. This does not mean you don't have control of X or the channel. If you are authenticated, you can issue commands like KICK, BAN, etc. through X, you just can't be opped yourself. /msg x set <#channel> noop STRICTOP - This allows only Level 100+ users who are authenticated to be opped. /msg x set <#channel> strictop -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LEVELS 450-499 : Trusted Channel Admin. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SET - Changes special X modes for channel. /msg x set <#channel> * Variables and Values: AUTOTOPIC - This flag makes X reset the topic to the channel DESCRIPTION and URL every 30 minutes. Note that if the channel is idle, the topic will not be reset during that time. /msg x set <#channel> autotopic DESCRIPTION - Sets the default channel topic (maximum of 80 characters). This does NOT affect the actual channel topic, unless AUTOTOPIC is ON. The topic can be seen only by the CHANINFO command (level 0). If no description text is specified, the current description is reset. Alias: DESC /msg x set <#channel> description [text] or /msg x set <#channel> desc [text] KEYWORDS - Sets keywords for your channel that will trigger on a SEARCH (level 0) of channels. If no keywords are specified, the current keywords are reset. The maximum string of keywords is 80 characters long. /msg x set <#channel> keywords [text] MODE - This will save the current channel modes as default. Whenever X joins the channel, it will reset those modes if any are not set at the time and it is alone in the channel. /msg x set <#channel> mode URL - You can state your channel's homepage address(es) with this option (maximum of 75 characters). Spaces are permitted, allowing multiple URL parameters to be specified. This does NOT affect the channel topic, unless AUTOTOPIC is ON (level 450). The DESCRIPTION and URL can be seen by using the CHANINFO command (level 0). If no url is specified, the current url is reset. /msg x set <#channel> url [url url2 ... urlN] USERFLAGS - Determines whether or not OP or VOICE will automatically be set for AUTOMODE when a new user is added to the userlist. Default value is 0 (None). NOTE: Once a user is on the userlist, the MODINFO AUTOMODE command (level 400) can be issued to change the value for that individual alone. * Values: 0 = No AutoMode set for all new users added. 1 = Op AutoMode set for all new users added. 2 = Voice AutoMode set for all new users added. /msg x set <#channel> userflags <0-2> JOIN - Makes X join your channel. /msg x join <#channel> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LEVELS 400-449 : Userlist Admin -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ADDUSER - Adds a user to the channel's userlist. You cannot ADDUSER someone with equal or higher access than your own. /msg x adduser <#channel> CLEARMODE - Clears all channel modes. Can be used when your channel has been locked up (set +i or +k without your knowledge). NOTE: This is not necessarily the best method to gain entry to your channel, because other people or bots may be opped in the channel that may reset the modes as you clear them. Refer to the STATUS command (level 200) for related information. /msg x clearmode <#channel> MODINFO - The following commands can be used to make changes to existing users in your channel's userlist. /msg x modinfo <#channel> * Variables for ModInfo: ACCESS - Changes the access level of a user. Access level can be set between 1 and one less than your own level (if you have an access level of 400, you may assign a level of up to 399 to other users). /msg x modinfo <#channel> access AUTOMODE - Changes the automode of a user to one the specified modes: NONE, OP, or VOICE. OP or VOICE will make X op or voice an authenticated user when they enter the channel.

This should be a seldom used command. Use should be limited to extreme channel flooding or clones. You may want to set a ban on the mask, or +i (invite mode) on the channel before issuing the kick to prevent matching users from rejoining after being kicked. /msg x kick <#channel> [reason] STATUS - Displays all special X settings, channel modes, the number of users and ops in the channel, currently authenticated users for the channel, and whether X is on the channel or not. Currently authenticated users are shown in a "username/nickname [level]" format. A user's nickname will only be shown if that user is currently on the channel, otherwise only their username and level are displayed. The ability to see channel modes is extremely helpful in case the channel is +k (keyed mode), since you can find out what the key is. This commands works regardless of whether X is on the channel or not. /msg x status <#channel> -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LEVELS 100-399 : Channel Operator -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DEOP - Deops one or more persons in your channel.

You may place a ban on a nick if the person is online or ban their *!*user@*.host if the person is not online. Bans that cover a broader range than previously set bans will replace previous bans. Any user in the channel that matches the added ban will be kicked out if the ban level is 75+. The duration is in hours, with a maximum of 336 hours (2 weeks). The ban level can range from 1 to your own level. The ban reason can be a maximum of 128 characters long.
