ChanServ

ChanServ

ChanServ is an IRC Services module that allows users to register and control channels.

Usage

ChanServ's main purpose is to allow for the registration of channels. Much like NickServ, ChanServ supports the register command. To register a channel, you must have a NickServ account. When a channel is registered, it gets tied to your NickServ account. ChanServ also poses as a channel management module, allowing you to control who has access to different commands which control the channel.

Commands

These are based off of Freenode's ChanServs' commands. Other servers may vary.
