DWIRC:ChanServ
ChanServ
ChanServ manages the registration and access of channels on the network.
1. Channel Registration
- Channel registration is allowed only for users with confirmed DWIRC:NickServ accounts.
- Users must have operator (@) status in the channel to register it.
- A registered channel designates the user as founder, giving full control over channel settings and access.
2. Channel Expiry
- Channels are considered inactive after 180 days of no joins or activity.
- Expired channels may be removed or reassigned following policy review.
3. Channel Transfers
Ownership transfer is permitted in the following cases:
- By agreement between users
- Due to inactivity of the founder for 90 days
All transfers are subject to Oper team approval.
4. Access and Settings
Registered channels may utilize:
- xOP / Access lists for privilege control
- Secure settings like SECURE, RESTRICTED, PRIVATE, or PERSIST
- Bots (via DWIRC:BotServ) and host configurations (via DWIRC:HostServ)
