Please read also rules of my channels.

The bot doesn't allow people to register by themselves and it might be

configured to A) only reply to identified users B) not reply on certain channel to anyone C) reply only to owner at certain channel. This might change without notice.

Currently only ops on the channels it's on are registered and should be identified by their nickserv account.

List of the channels where the bot is on can be seen with /whois. However this list doesn't include secret/private channels (mode +sp).

The bot can also be requested to join other channels, but I reserve the right to not join it anywhere or to not register specific channel ops to the bot. It doesn't have open registration.

Do you have an account, but you aren't identified? As you are ignored unless you are identified, you can trigger message on the IRCd including your NickServ account by using one of the following methods:

  • /cycle so extended-join sends your account name to the bot.
  • /kick so the bot will automatically rejoin and send whox requests to the channel receiving your NickServ account.

What does the bot do?

Currently the bot is primarily spamming my channel with new items in some RSS feeds. You can find list of the feeds added to the bot at the web documentation for RSS plugin, but listing the feeds automatically announced on the channel isn't possible yet.

It's also protecting channels from spam using the AttackProtector plugin.
