+ | ======Synopsis: | ||
+ | __silence__ [[+|-]< | ||
+ | __silence__ [< | ||
+ | |||
+ | ======Description: | ||
+ | __SILENCE__ is a server extension available on undernet servers. | ||
+ | purpose is similar to [[IGNORE]], and acts as a complement, and not a | ||
+ | replacement to [[IGNORE]]. | ||
+ | |||
+ | When you __SILENCE___ someone, every server on the network is told that | ||
+ | you do not want to receive any messages from that person. | ||
+ | person tries to send you any more messages, his local server will drop | ||
+ | the message directly at the source. | ||
+ | to receive the message and process it with [[IGNORE]], and it saves the | ||
+ | network the resources of sending a message that you do not want. This | ||
+ | technique can be very effective against flooders. | ||
+ | |||
+ | If you do not provide an argument to __SILENCE__ your current silence | ||
+ | list will be shown. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The argument of __SILENCE__ may be a plus (' | ||
+ | by a full nick!user@host pattern which is of the same composition as a ban | ||
+ | ([[MODE]] +b), except that at least one ' | ||
+ | prefix is a plus, the pattern is added to your silence list. If the prefix | ||
+ | is a minus, the pattern is removed from your silence list. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The argument of __SILENCE__ may be the nickname of another irc user. You | ||
+ | will be shown that user's silence list. This can be useful in case you | ||
+ | wanted to know if you or someone else are being silenced by that person. | ||
+ | |||
+ | This command will only work on servers with the __SILENCE__ extension | ||
+ | (mostly undernet servers) and the number of entries in your __SILENCE__ | ||
+ | list is limited, usually to 5 entries. | ||
+ | for [[IGNORE]] since [[IGNORE]] offers finer-grained control and is not | ||
+ | limited in size. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ======Options: | ||
+ | | ||
+ | | ||
+ | |||
+ | ======Examples: | ||
+ | To add someone to your silence list: | ||
+ | /silence +*!*jerk@*.moron.org | ||
+ | |||
+ | To remove someone from your silence list: | ||
+ | /silence -*!*friend@*.bestbuds.com | ||
+ | |||
+ | To see the silence list for FooBar: | ||
+ | /silence foobar | ||
+ | |||
+ | ======Restrictions: | ||
+ | This command is limited to Undernet-based servers (i.e. it won't work on | ||
+ | EFnet). | ||
