Syntax: /chanserv SET #roomname MLOCK modes

Sets the mode-lock parameter for the room. ChanServ

allows you to define certain room modes to be always

on (or off). The modes that can be locked are i, k, l,

m, n, p, s, and t; each of these modes can be locked on, locked off, or not locked. The modes parameter is

constructed exactly the same way as a /MODE command; that

is, modes followed by a + are locked on, and modes

followed by a – are locked off.

Warning: If you set a mode-locked key, as in the second example below, you should also set the RESTRICTED option for the channel (see HELP SET RESTRICTED), or anyone entering the channel when it is empty will be able to see the key!

Examples:

SET #channel MLOCK +nt-iklps

Forces modes n and t on, and modes i, k, l, p, and

s off. Mode m is left free to be either on or off.

SET #channel MLOCK +knst-ilmp my-key

Forces modes k, n, s, and t on, and modes i, l, m,

and p off. Also forces the channel key to be

“my-key”.

SET #channel MLOCK +

Removes the mode lock; all channel modes are free

to be either on or off.
