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. Available

commands are listed below; to use them, type

/msg ChanServ command. For more information on a

specific command, type /msg ChanServ HELP command.

Note that any channel which is not used for 21 days

(i.e. which no user on the channel’s access list enters

for that period of time) will be automatically dropped.

The following commands are available to Services admins:

GETPASS Retrieve the founder password for a channel

(only if encryption is disabled)

FORBID Prevent a channel from being used

STATUS Returns the current access level of a user

on a channel

CLIST List all channels an user is founder of

Services admins can also drop any channel without needing

and level setting lists for any channel.
