Forums General Discussion Newbie info?

Hello all,

I need help (as I am a newbie).
I want to open a chat room in IRCnet (this is not yet the problem), now the question is, what would be the easiest way to get a bot for this room, a simple bot that just gives OPs to me and someone else, NOT anyone. Nothing else is needed, just a bot that stays on the channel and gives OPs to who they should have.

Any got (and easy) ideas???

alias addaop {
auser $1 aop
}
on aop:JOIN:#:{
mode # +o $nick
}
/addaop <nick>

You mean a bot that stays onlinbe 24/7 ? i dont think it's a easy way to get that, an eggdrop maybe, but a shell for that costs money if you dont know somone that running linux/windows and are connected 24/7 .. "for windows the bot is called windrop"

Something that simple you could easily script yourself.
Allow me to suggest you to read the mIRC FAQ, the part about the 'remote' section and see how a simple script is created. It really is not too difficult. You'll learn how to give yourself and your friends a certain 'level' and how to create sime script lines for people with that level, to give them OPs etc. nothing you couldn't manage in a few hours. And really - you'll feel good after managing that on your own! succes!!!

You don't need a bot for those things you speicfy, ChanServ can do them for you.

try

/chanserv aop #chan add NICK

to add NICK to the aop list for #chan. ChanServ will aop them... and here's the best part... only iff they have /nickserv identified. This can keep impersonators from gaining ops.

if the first form doesn't work, this should:

/chanserv set #chan aop add NICK

chanserv on IRCnet?

So I don't need a bot for this, a script is enough then? The only thing I actually need is that I can comeback and get the OPs, even when there is someone else there, before me.

Focus on making friends in other channels first. This is an age old discussion about people who want to start and become master and ruler of their own #channel. Frankly, #channels are not meant to have masters and rulers... but are a place for people to chat.

Unless you have no less than 5-10 closly knit friends, all willing to dedicate heart and soul to your channel while keeping it open and oped... there is really no point in even starting a new channel, so give up now. Chances are people are quite happy where they're chatting right now.

Try one of the many other fine #channels IRC has to offer.
Make some friends. Friends are important.

Awww... I quite like this post... its almost kitten-esque in its cuddlability.

I'll be your friend! i have no friends either, we could start a revolution of non-friend-having-friends, we'd cause some form of paradox with the cosmic proportions of the ironic statement we were making to the world..

man... that all sounded so much better in my head.

Hmm.. I am sorry Raccon... You know not everyone is like you , some of us have friends.

The question is not about mastering the channel as He-Man. And If you read the first (1st) message I wrote, you will see that it was never meant to be just for me nor He-Man nor Bill Gates.
