- 5 - Other Advantages of Registering Nicks
- Killing A Ghost
Many of the people who use the channel find this command very useful. If for any reason you lose your internet connection while in the chatroom, the server won't know that you have left, and so if you come back right away, your "ghost" will still be there, and you will log on with your "alternative" nickname. To rememdy this situation, type
/msg nickserv ghost registerednick passwordwhere 'registerednick' is the nickname of your ghost (if that nickname isn't registered, theres nothing you can do about it im afraid, except smile sweetly at an IRCop if theres one there at the time.)- Sending Memos
If for any reason you want to send a memo to someone else who uses the IRC channel, you can use a bot called "MemoServ". For this service to function, both the sender and the receiver of the memo must have registered nicks. To send a message type
/msg memoserv send nick messageIf at any time you receive a memo, instructions will appear on screen on how to read it. - Killing A Ghost
