1. How-To Use IRC command using mIRC

IRC (Internet Relay Chat) is a internet service that you can chat with many people from around the world on. I'll teach
you some of the basics here. First off go to www.mirc.com and download the program and instal it. Once you open up
mIRC go to File>Options and fill out the info please do not fill out your real full name and personal info because
people can do bad things with your info. The nickname will be what everyone else on IRC see's you as when you are
chatting with them. The alternative nickname is a backup for your nickname incase it is in use. Then it asks about a
server if you are using IRC for gaming connect to east.gamesnet.net on port 6667. But there are many other servers
for many other things. Once you are in a server you join a channel, there are usually a bunch of channels on servers
but you only see the defauts and so many to see custom one's you must add them manually they do not show up on
the default list otherwise those lists would be huge.


The Commands for IRC are:

/list - this command will list all the channels on the server you are connected to
/join #channel - this will connect to the channel you want to join ex /join #GAMERS
/nick newnick - this will change your nick-name example /nick Johnathan
/me Hits You - this will print your name does something ex /me is hitting you with fish
/whois Username - this will do a who is lookup on the User you specify ex /whois Mike591
/ctcp username Version - this will tell you what version of a IRC client the user is using ex /ctcp bob version
/ctcp username ping - this will tell you their connection speed ex /ctcp bob ping
/ctcp username finger - this will give you all their info they filled out /ctcp bob finger
/nickserv register pass email - this will register your name remember your password /nickserv register yourpass shiz@yahoo.com
/nickserv identify yourpass - this will identify you as your username you registered under ex /nickserv yourpass

For Server Ops:

/kick #channelname nick - this will kick someone off your channel name example /kick #GAMES Richard
/ban nick - this will BAN someone example /ban Retard
/mode +O nick - this will add someone to the operator or admin list example /mode +O Mike
/mode -O nick - this will remove someone from the admin list example /mode -O Mike
/mode #Channel -v username - this will make it where user cant talk but has too see you talk
/mode +H nick - this will add someone as a half admin or operator example /mode +H Steven
/mode -H nick - this will remove someone from being a half admin example /mode -H Steven

-----

Examples to connect to a IRC channel:

First join a server
Second type /list
Pick a channel to join
Then type
/join #channelyouwant

There you are connected and in a IRC channel chatting with people here is a example for admins of IRC channels.

-----

Say there is an ass-hole you want to kick you would type:

/kick #yourchannelname BUTTHOLE

There you kicked the user with the nick BUTTHOLE

-----

Say the faggot kept coming back you would type:

/ban BUTTHOLE

There you banned the user with the nick BUTTHOLE - ban means they cant join forever

-----

Let's say you wanted to make someone else an admin so they can control your server you would type:

/mode +O friendsnickname

-----

Let's say you wanted to make someone a admin but not let him do some admin things like remove or add people
as admins but still have the power to kick/ban people. You would type:

/mode +H friendsnickname
