Forums mIRC Help Banning with set time

Hello,
Could someone help me out a litle with a simple code that i need.

This is what I have:


But what do i add to it so that i can set a ban time, for example a ban for 60mins and what would it be for a definate ban.

Thanks fo any help

use /ban -ku<time> #channelname nickname (mask)

<time> must be the number of seconds
(mask) is optional and, if supplied, will use the appropriate user address for that mask

/help /ban
/help $mask

so would this work ok.



if i wanted to set a permanant ban?

Yes, that would work. Of course another op may unban it, or perhaps some channel bot set to unban all bans after a certain period of time. Or, if everyone leaves the channel, the ban list is cleared. Theoretically though, the ban would be permanent.

Regards,

Just a little side note, using /mode +b for a ban will prevent the nick/address from joining, but if they are already on the channel when the mode is set, it will not kick them.

If you want to kick them off as well, you'd have to use /kick <channel> <nick>, along with the /mode +b command

An alternative to this, is to use /ban -k <channel> <nick> <mask>

As mentioned before, the <mask> parameter is optional

The -k switch kicks the nick before setting the ban

/help /ban for more information
