Channel Management

[Diesel]

This guide will tell you how to manage your channel, but because some nerd from somewhere can always best me, read http://www.isi.edu/in-notes/rfc2811.txt if you need more help .

Ok first things first, you have read my other thread, and now you want to manage your channel.

Its rather easy to do.

First, you need to assign ops, the rankings on IRC (mIRC at least) are as follows: + (voice), % (half op), @ (op), & (super op), and ~ (channel admin).

Ok, so now to teach you how to simply give people these ranks when they join your channel. (using #d3scene and name diesel as examples)

the command is:

 /mode #d3scene +v Diesel

To de-rank a player, change the + in the above code to a - (with their coresponding rank)

That one is for Voice (+), to save space, I will now tell you just wat to add instead of +v to get results.
% = +h
@ = +o
& = +ao
~ = you must give them channel password and they must enter:

/cs owner #d3scene channel password 

Now to teach you how to make it so every time they join, they get their rank.

The code is:

/cs VOP #your channel ADD their name 

Now I will do the same thing:

% = HOP
@ = AOP
& = SOP

If you want them to be ~ every time they join, put them at SOP, and make them do it manually each time.

To remove a user, change the word "ADD" to "DEL"

Someone being roudy in your channel? Kick/Ban 'em!

 /cs kick #your channel their name 

If you want to ban them, do this before kicking them!

 /mode #your channel +b their name 

To manage ban list (on mIRC) "retrive channel modes" by left clicking the chat box area.

In Channel modes, you can also make a title for your channel, if you want this to be colorful, ctrl + k, select your color, and if you want a background color also, enter a comma, then add the number of that color too.

Want to invite someone into your channel? Its easy, just enter this command:

/cs invite #your channel their name 

Alright, I may add some later, for now that is it, hope this helps you!


You will probably also want to add an anti-abuse bot, so that people cant flood your channel or anything, for one, please look here (to figure how to set it up), and also look at my other thread.

I will give you an example of a script that may help your channel, it is an auto-greeter, it is only visible by the person who logs in.

#greet on
on 1:JOIN:#:{ .notice $nick Hi there, welcome to $chan !! }
#greet end 

I will add more later, but for now, I hope you enjoy it! .
