AKICK

The AKICK command allows you to maintain channel ban lists. Users on the AKICK list will be automatically kickbanned when they join the channel, removing any matching ban exceptions first. Users with the +r flag are exempt.

Syntax: AKICK <#channel> ADD <nickname|hostmask> [!P|!T <minutes>] [reason]

You may also specify a hostmask (nick!user@host) for the AKICK list.

The reason is used when kicking and is visible in AKICK LIST. If the reason contains a '|' character, everything after it does not appear in kick reasons but does appear in AKICK LIST.

If the !P token is specified, the AKICK will never expire (permanent). If the !T token is specified, expire time must follow, in minutes, hours ("h"), days ("d") or weeks ("w").

Syntax: AKICK <#channel> DEL <nickname|hostmask>

This will remove an entry from the AKICK list. Removing an entry will remove any matching channel bans unless the channel is set NOSYNC.

Syntax: AKICK <#channel> LIST

This will list all entries in the AKICK list, including the reason and time left until expiration.

Examples:
/msg ChanServ AKICK #foo ADD bar you are annoying | private op info

The BAN command allows you to ban a user or hostmask from a channel.

Syntax: BAN <#channel> <nickname|hostmask>

Examples:
/msg ChanServ BAN #chat carnell
/msg ChanServ BAN #chat *!*@*.ipt.aol.com

CLEAR BANS

Clear bans will remove all bans found in a specific channel. If your ircd supports other lists associated with a channel (e.g. ban exceptions), you can clear these by specifying the mode letters. Specify an asterisk to clear all lists.

Syntax: CLEAR <#channel> BANS [types]

Examples:
/msg ChanServ CLEAR #support BANS

Clears #support ban list.

/msg ChanServ CLEAR #support BANS eI

Removes all ban and invite exceptions on #support (if your ircd supports them).

/msg ChanServ CLEAR #support BANS *

Clears all lists of #support.

/msg ChanServ CLEAR #support BANS +

Shows the possible letters.

CLEAR FLAGS

CLEAR FLAGS will kick remove all flags from all users (or groups) with channel access on the channel specified except for users who are channel founders.

This command can only be used by channel founders.

Syntax: CLEAR <#channel> FLAGS

Examples:
/msg ChanServ CLEAR #atheme FLAGS

CLEAR USERS

Clear users will kick all users out of the channel, except you. The channel will be cycled (recreated) if you are not on it.

If a reason is specified, it will be included in the kick message.

Syntax: CLEAR <#channel> USERS [reason]

Examples:
/msg ChanServ CLEAR #ChatZone USERS

CLOSE

CLOSE prevents a channel from being used. Anyone who enters is immediately kickbanned. The channel cannot be dropped and foundership cannot be transferred.

Enabling CLOSE will immediately kick all users from the channel.

Use CLOSE OFF to reopen a channel. While closed, channels will still expire.

Syntax: CLOSE <#channel> ON|OFF [reason]

Examples:
/msg ChanServ CLOSE #lamers ON spamming
/msg ChanServ CLOSE #spiderslair OFF

COUNT

This will give a count of how many entries are in each of the channel's xOP lists and how many entries on the access list do not match a xOP value.

The second line shows how many access entries have each flag.

Syntax: COUNT <#channel>

Examples:
/msg ChanServ COUNT #oscn

DROP

DROP allows you to "unregister" a registered channel.

Once you DROP a channel all of the data associated with it (access lists, etc) are removed and cannot be restored.

See help on SET FOUNDER and FLAGS for transferring a channel to another user.

Syntax: DROP <#channel>

Examples:
/msg ChanServ DROP #foo

FDROP

FDROP allows dropping any registered channel, provided it is not set held (see help on HOLD).

Once you FDROP a channel all of the data associated with it (access lists, etc) are removed and cannot be restored.

Syntax: FDROP <#channel>

Examples:
/msg ChanServ FDROP #foo

FFLAGS

The FFLAGS command allows an oper to force a flags change on a channel. The syntax is the same as FLAGS, except that the target and flags changes must be given. Viewing any channel's access list is done with FLAGS.

Syntax: FFLAGS <#channel> <nickname|hostmask> <template>
Syntax: FFLAGS <#channel> <nickname|hostmask> <flag_changes>

Examples:
/msg ChanServ FFLAGS #foo foo AOP

FLAGS

The FLAGS command allows for the granting/removal of channel privileges on a more specific, non-generalized level. It supports nicknames, groups and hostmasks as targets.

When only the channel argument is given, a listing of permissions granted to users will be displayed.

Syntax: FLAGS <#channel>

Otherwise, an access entry is modified. A modification may be specified by a template name (changes the access to the template) or a flags change (starts with + or -). See the TEMPLATE help entry for more information about templates.

If you are not a founder, you may only manipulate flags you have yourself, and may not edit users that have flags you don't have. For this purpose, +v grants +V, +o grants +O and +r grants +b. If you are not a founder, you may only manipulate flags you have yourself, and may not edit users that have flags you don't have. For this purpose, +v grants +V, +h grants +H, +o grants +O and +r grants +b.

If the LIMITFLAGS option is set for the channel, this is restricted further, see help for SET LIMITFLAGS.

If you do not have +f you may still remove your own access with -*.

Syntax: FLAGS <#channel> [nickname|hostmask|group template]
Syntax: FLAGS <#channel> [nickname|hostmask|group flag_changes]

Permissions:
+v - Enables use of the voice/devoice commands.
+V - Enables automatic voice.
+h - Enables use of the halfop/dehalfop commands.
+H - Enables automatic halfop.
+o - Enables use of the op/deop commands.
+O - Enables automatic op.
+a - Enables use of the protect/deprotect commands.
+q - Enables use of the owner/deowner commands.
+s - Enables use of the set command.
+i - Enables use of the invite and getkey commands.
+r - Enables use of the kick, kickban, ban and unban commands.
+r - Enables use of the ban and unban commands.
+r - Enables use of the unban command.
+R - Enables use of the recover and clear commands.
+f - Enables modification of channel access lists.
+t - Enables use of the topic and topicappend commands.
+A - Enables viewing of channel access lists.
+S - Marks the user as a successor.
+F - Grants full founder access.
+b - Enables automatic kickban.

The special permission +* adds all permissions except +b and +F. The special permission -* removes all permissions including +b and +F.

Examples:
/msg ChanServ FLAGS #foo
/msg ChanServ FLAGS #foo foo!*@bar.com VOP
/msg ChanServ FLAGS #foo foo!*@bar.com -V+oO
/msg ChanServ FLAGS #foo foo!*@bar.com -*
/msg ChanServ FLAGS #foo foo +oOtsi
/msg ChanServ FLAGS #foo TroubleUser!*@*.troubleisp.net +b
/msg ChanServ FLAGS #foo !baz +*

FORCEXOP

FORCEXOP resets all channel access levels to xOP compatible values. That is, after the operation, the founder(s) will have all permissions and autoop and everyone else on with flags will be on one of the xOP lists. This command is useful if the definitions for which flags each xOP level gives change and the founder wishes to use xOP commands only.

If the channel is set +i, no ban will be set and invite exceptions will be removed.

Syntax: SET <#channel> RESTRICTED ON|OFF

Example:
/msg ChanServ SET #snoop RESTRICTED ON

SET SECURE

SET SECURE prevents anyone that's not on the channel's access lists from gaining operator or halfop status on the channel. This is useful if you're paranoid.

Syntax: SET <#channel> SECURE ON|OFF

Example:
/msg ChanServ SET #foo SECURE ON

SET TOPICLOCK

SET TOPICLOCK causes ChanServ to revert topic changes by users without the +t flag. Topic changes during netsplits or services outages will always be reverted.

TOPICLOCK requires KEEPTOPIC and will automatically enable it; disabling KEEPTOPIC will disable TOPICLOCK also.

Syntax: SET <#channel> TOPICLOCK ON|OFF

Example:
/msg ChanServ SET #foo TOPICLOCK ON

SET URL

SET URL allows you to change or set the URL associated with a channel. This is shown to all users joining the channel.

Syntax: SET <#channel> URL [url]

Example:
/msg ChanServ SET #chat URL https://slashdot.org

SET VERBOSE

SET VERBOSE ON sends a notice to the channel when someone makes changes to the access lists.

Examples: /msg ChanServ SYNC #bar

TAXONOMY

The taxonomy command lists metadata information associated with registered channels.

Examples:
/msg ChanServ TAXONOMY #atheme

TEMPLATE

Without arguments, network wide templates are shown. These include at least SOP/AOP/HOP/VOP. These include at least SOP/AOP/VOP.

Syntax: TEMPLATE

When given only the channel argument, a listing of templates for the channel will be displayed.

Syntax: TEMPLATE <#channel>

Otherwise, a template is modified. A modification may be specified by a template name (copies the template) or a flags change (starts with + or -, optionally preceded by an !). Templates cannot be the empty set (making a template empty deletes it).

If the ! form is used, all access entries which exactly match the template are changed accordingly. This is not supported if the template includes or included founder access (+F).

There is a limit on the length of all templates on a channel.

If you are not a founder, similar restrictions apply as in FLAGS.

Syntax: TEMPLATE <#channel> [template oldtemplate]
Syntax: TEMPLATE <#channel> [template flag_changes]
Syntax: TEMPLATE <#channel> [template !flag_changes]

Examples:
/msg ChanServ TEMPLATE #foo
/msg ChanServ TEMPLATE #foo user VOP
/msg ChanServ TEMPLATE #foo user !+A
/msg ChanServ TEMPLATE #foo co-founder +*-OH

WHY

The WHY command shows the access entries an online user matches.

Syntax: WHY <#channel> [nickname]

Examples:
/msg ChanServ WHY #atheme jilles^

xOP

The xOP commands allow you to maintain channel access lists. Channel access lists can contain registered accounts or hostmasks (nick!user@host).

The exact meanings of the access levels may differ per network, use /msg ChanServ TEMPLATE to check. As a hint, VOP stands for VOice People, HOP stands for HalfOP, AOP stands for AutoOP, SOP stands for SuperOP. a hint, VOP stands for VOice People, AOP stands for AutoOP, SOP stands for SuperOP.

Not all channel access entries can be edited with these commands, see the FLAGS and FORCEXOP help entries for details. Note that use of FORCEXOP can destroy a lot of information. The TEMPLATE system can provide most of the ease of use of these commands without the restrictions.

The privileges required to execute these commands are the same as those required for the corresponding FLAGS commands.

Syntax: VOP|HOP|AOP|SOP <#channel> ADD|DEL|LIST <nickname|hostmask>
Syntax: VOP|AOP|SOP <#channel> ADD|DEL|LIST <nickname|hostmask>

Examples:
