| About Services |
| Services allow for a more
meaningful IRC experience. They allow for you to ensure your
identity is secure and that you remain in control over your registered
channels. Both of these abilities also make it so that users
cannot masquerade as you, or take over your channel, thus protecting
yourself and your community. |

| Service Name |
Uses |
| NickServ |
NickServ allows you to "register" a nickname and
prevent others from using it. All commands allow for registration and maintenance
of nicknames; to obtain a list of commands, please type: /msg NickServ Help. To
use commands, please type /msg NickServ command.
This service is intended to provide a way for IRC users to ensure their identity is
not compromised. It is NOT intended to facilitate "stealing" of nicknames or other
malicious actions. Abuse of NickServ will result in, at minimum, loss of the abused
nickname(s). |
| ChanServ |
ChanServ allows you to register and control various
aspects of channels. ChanServ can often prevent malicious users from "taking over"
channels by limiting who is allowed channel operator priviliges. To obtain a list of
commands, please type /msg ChanServ help. To use commands, type /msg ChanServ command.
For more information on a specific command, type /msg ChanServ HELP command. |
| MemoServ |
MemoServ is a utility allowing IRC users to send short
messages to other IRC users, whether they are online at the time or not, or to
channels(*). Both the sender's nickname and the target nickname or channel must
be registered in order to send a memo. To obtain a list of commands, please type
/msg MemoServ help. To use commands, type /msg MemoServ command. |
| BotServ |
BotServ allows you to have a bot on your own channel.
It has been created for users that can't host or configure a bot, or for use on
networks that don't allow user bots. To obtain a list of commands, please type
/msg BotServ help. To use a command, type /msg BotServ command. For more
information on a specific command, type /msg BotServ HELP command.
Bots will join and moderate channels automatically when there is 1 or more users in
the channel (assuming that there is a bot assigned to that channel). |
| OperServ |
OperServ (or RootServ) is an IRCOperator only bot.
This bot is for the maintenance of various IRC Server features and is not available
to anyone other than IRCOps. All messages to this bot by non-IRCOps will be ignored. |
