[back to top]


RECOVER - Kill another user who has taken your nick. Allows you to recover your nickname if someone else has taken it; this does the same thing that NickServ does automatically if someone tries to use a kill-protected nick. When you give this command, Nickserv will bring a fake user online with the same nickname as the user you're trying to recover your nick from. This causes the IRC servers to disconnect the other user. This fake user will remain online for one minute to ensure that the other user does not immediately reconnect; after that minute, you can reclaim your nick. Alternatively, use the RELEASE command to get the nick back sooner.

/msg nickserv recover nickname password
[back to top]


RELEASE - Regain custody of your nick. Instructs Nickserv to remove any hold on your nickname caused by automatic kill protection or use of the RECOVER command. By default, such holds last for one minute; this command gets rid of them sooner.

/msg nickserv release nick password
[back to top]


SENDPASS - Send an email containing your nickserv password given in the register command. (This service is currently not activated for Abjects's services but may be in the future).

/msg nickserv sendpass nickname
[back to top]


GHOST - Terminates a "ghost" IRC session using your nick. A "ghost" session is one which is not actually connected, but which the IRC server believes is still online for one reason or another. Typically, this happens if your computer crashes or your Internet or modem connection goes down while you're on IRC.

/msg nickserv ghost nick password (e.g. /msg nickserv ghost mynick myp4ssw0rd)
[back to top]


ALIST- Lists channels you have access on. You must be identified to your nick in order to use this command.

/msg nickserv alist
[back to top]


GLIST - List all the nicknames in your group.

/msg nickserv glist
[back to top]


INFO - Displays information about the given nickname, such as the nick's owner, last seen address and time, and nick options. If you are identified for the nick you're and ALL is specified, you will be shown all the information; regardless of whether it's hidden or not.

/msg nickserv info nick (e.g. /msg nickserv info someone)

/msg nickserv info nick all (e.g. /msg nickserv info yournick all)

/msg nickserv logout

STATUS - Returns whether the user using the given nickname is recognized as the owner of the nickname. The response has this format: nickname status-code, where nickname is the nickname sent with the command, and status-code is one of the following:

0 - no such user online or nickname not registered

1 - user not recognized as nickname's owner

2 - user recognized as owner via access list only

3 - user recognized as owner via password identification



Up to sixteen nicknames may be sent with each command; the rest will be ignored. No error message is generated if no nickname is given.
