Commands Used To Register or Maintain IRC Channels

I wont even begin to list all the commands for chanserve here, but I will outline the most important and useful ones.  If you desire a complete copy, please e-mail me from the link below and I will send them to you or ask me online to get a DCC of the commands.

These commands, depending on the network can begin with simply using /cs (short for Chanserv), or /chanserv, or /msg chanserv. Note that I have used the
simple  /cs in my examples for simplicity.

Command        Purpose and Use



Register                To register a channel to you, making you the 'founder' of the channel, giving you
                            complete control of all channel options.  The channel name #irchelp is used here
                            as an example.  You MUST have a registered nickname to register a channel.
                            /msg chanserv register #irchelp yourpassword irchelp channel
                            or:   /msg chanserv register #irchelp password channeldescription

Info                      This command lists the information chanserv has about the channel in question.
                            The usage would be in order to find out who is the founder of the channel, or
                            find out when the channel was founded.
                            The command is   /cs info #channelname

Sop                      The Sop command is used to add or delete Sop's from the channel Sop list.
                            Sop's control what goes on in the channel, in addition to being able to add or
                            delete Aops.  Sops can also add or delete from the akick list for the channel.
                            Command usage is   /cs sop #channelname add/del nickname
                            You must 'identify' to chanserv with the channel password in order to be able
                            to change the Sop list.  (see the identify command below)

Aop                      The Aop command is used to add or delete Aop's from the Aop list for the
                            channel.  Aops have the same control over the channel that Sops do with the
                            exceptions of being able to add new Aop's or change the akick list.  You
                            must be a Sop or founder in able to add/delete Aops.
                            The command is:       /cs aop #channelname add  nickname

Akick                   The akick command is intended to be a permanent ban for someone, keeping
                            them out of the channel no matter if the ban list is wiped.  When entering an
                            akick, you must enter the persons ip address to be effective.  Be careful not
                            to be too prohibitive in your akick with too many wildcards in the IP address.
                           You will end up keeping others out that were not intended.
                            The command is:     /cs akick #channelname add/del *!*@*.linknet.com
                            NOTE:  If you were to set this akick, it would essentially ban EVERYONE
                            from linknet.com.  Try to only use the * wildcard in the 'dynamic' portion of
                            the ip address.  If youre unsure what the dynamic portion is, contact one of
                            your local IRCops to help you.  You must be at least a Sop in order to add
                            or delete akicks to the list.
                            Other uses include:      /cs akick #channel LIST
                                                              /cs akick #channel WIPE

mlock                   Mlock is the command given to chanserv that locks the 'modes' of the channel.
                            These modes will remain locked onto the channel even if the channel becomes
                            empty.   The command is:     /cs set #channelname mlock +rtn (or whatever
                            the mode happens to be.  You must be indentified as the founder to set mlock.

topiclock               Topiclock is used to lock the channels topic editing, allowing only authorized
                            access levels to change the topic.
                            The command is:     /cs set #channel topiclock on
                            In this case, only the founder can change the topic.

identify                 Indentify is used to identify to chanserv the founder of the channel.  This is done
                            by using your password for the channel.
                            The command is:     /cs identify #channelname password

Mdeop                 This command is used to Deop everyone in the channel including yourself.  You
                           must be SOP in the channel to use this command.
                           The command is:    /cs mdeop #channelname

Mkick                  This command is used to kick every user out of your channel.  You must be SOP
                            in  the channel to use this command.
                            The command is:     /cs mkick #channnelname

Deop                   Deop is used to remove +o (op) from someone in your channel.  It can be used
                           either while you are in or outside your channel.
                           The command is:     /cs deop #channel nickname

Op                       Op is used opposite of deop.  You can use the command from inside or outside
                           the channel.
                           The command is:     /cs op #channel nickname

Drop                   Drop is used to drop your channel from registration with chanserv.  You must be
                           identified as the founder of the channel to use the command.
                           The command is:     /cs drop #channelname

Invite                  You may use invite to invite yourself to your own channel that is set with +i (invite
                           only) , or invite someone to your 'invite only' channel while you are there.
                           The command is:     /cs invite #channelname  (to invite yourself to a channel
                            you are aop on)
                                                         /cs invite nickname #channelname

Set                     There are many options that may be set under the 'set' command.  To see a list of
                          available settings click HERE.
