i just want my mirc to welcome people in to chat
this isnt working. i tried a number of variations but no go
on *:JOIN:*:{
$chan /msg Hello and welcome $nick blah blah blah | halt }

if someone could take the time to explain it a bit to me or point me to a help page that does smile
it is in remote hope thats right

Code:
on *:JOIN:#channelname: {
  msg $chan Hello and welcome $nick blah blah blah
}


you should use it for only a single channel or a set of channels... not for every channel...

most people do not like this sort of spam ;-]


If it ain't broken, don't fix it!

this will go to the room...

Code:
on *:JOIN:#channelname: {
  if ($nick != $me) .msg $nick Hello and welcome to $chan blah blah blah
}


improvement on the code and changed into messaging the person who joins... change .msg to .notice if you don't want to PM (which imho is better)


If it ain't broken, don't fix it!

FYI, this will work the same and negates the if comparison:

on !*:JOIN:#channelname:.msg $nick Hello and welcome to $chan blah blah blah

The ! is the same as saying if ($nick != $me)


Those who fail history are doomed to repeat it
