[02:38] <phillw> hi, anyone awake at this hour?
[02:40] <k1l> some are. but depends on what the issue is if that people can help :)
[02:42] <phillw> with issues going on, why is '/msg ChanServ KICK #channel nick' returning back "(02:22:44) ChanServ: (notice) Invalid command. Use /msg ChanServ help for a command listing."
[02:45] <k1l> are you set +r on that channel?
[02:45] <phillw> k1l: I'm the founder :)
[02:46] <ninnnu> Well, if you see /msg chanserv help, you'll notice that kick isn't a valid command..
[02:46] <k1l> yeah, i am not sure about freenode having that command on their chanserv
[02:47] <phillw> ahh, good call. that is atheme version of irc
[02:48] <k1l> but there is some chanserv please kick the user 'ish command
[02:48] <phillw> I love standards... akick is fine on freenode :D
[02:48] <phillw> which bans, but does not kick..
[02:49] <ninnnu> You could always just op yourself and kick them. I don't think Chanserv does anonymous removal anyway if that's what you're looking for.
[02:49] <phillw> yeah, iirc it is a mode +b with various *, !, - 's etc set.
[02:50] <k1l> there is a remove command (which is not anonymous)
[02:50] <phillw> ninnnu: I tried that... I am OP'd but my attempts to kick result in 'command not found'.
[02:51] <ninnnu> phillw: /kick nick, skip chanserv
[02:51] <ninnnu> It's a command in your client, not chanserv-thing
[02:51] <phillw> (02:20:56) ChanServ: (notice) AKICK list for #phillw:
[02:51] <phillw> (02:20:56) ChanServ: (notice) 1: add (tsimonq2) [setter: phillw, modified: 6m 9s]
[02:51] <phillw> so, that is set.
[02:52] <phillw> ooh, thanks ninnnu :)
[02:53] <phillw> you can guess I'm used to having an admin bot for these tasks but with the ongoing DDoS attacks the bot has to be re-started each time.
[02:55] <k1l> /remove #channel $nick :reason
[02:58] <phillw> k1l: 'no such channel' /remove #phillw tsimonq2
[02:58] <phillw> the channel is there :)
[02:58] <k1l> /cs remove #chan nick
[02:59] <phillw> k1l: just a kick will suffice..
[03:00] <phillw> akick already has user banned, but that cannot take effect whilst user is still on the channel
[03:00] <k1l> a remove is a kick
[03:00] <phillw> any one on here a freenode staffer?
[03:01] <k1l> just made by chanserv and not by the op. but the kickmessage is extended to who said chanserv to remoce
[03:01] <k1l> but most clients dont autorejoin on a remove.
[03:02] <phillw> k1l: so '/remove #phillw tsimonq2' should kick user tsimonq2 from channel #phillw ?
[03:04] <k1l> /remove are the ircd commands. /cs remove is the one thats issued from chanserv. i am not sure which is still working (due to changes to the ircd) but i know one works since its in the chanserv.py i use with hexchat :)
[03:06] <phillw> k1l: thanks for your help... those commands are not working and I cannot get my head around the mode +b flags :)
[03:07] <k1l> /quote remove #channel nick       that works, just tested
[03:09] <phillw> remove #phillw tsimonq2
[03:09] <phillw> no such channel
[03:10] <phillw> (03:08:59) phillw: remove #phillw tsimonq2
[03:10] <phillw> (03:09:09) no such chan
[03:11] <k1l> phillw: /quote remove #channel nick
[03:11] <k1l> just tested from the webchat to make sure my scripts are not cheating there
[03:13] <phillw> k1l: ahh, thanks... I was not using quote as I thought it was 'quote' as opposed to use!
[03:14] <k1l> ah no, / is the starting of IRC commands
[03:19] <phillw> you now see why I like an admin bot :)
[03:19] <phillw> k1l: "(03:18:20) tsimonq2: phillw: your failed attempts to correctly remove me amuse me"
[03:20] <k1l> well, use a proper irc client, then there are already made scripts :)   like for hexchat there is chanserv.py which is /cs kb user reason        and a user is gone and a ban is set.
[03:21] <phillw> k1l: which part of issuing commands and kicking people has ANYTHING to do with my irc client?... Just a question.....
[03:22] <k1l> you said its to complicated. so i think that proper scripted clients are much easier for that tasks.
[03:24] <phillw> that's why we have an admin bot... the "/quote remove tsimonq2" did not work
[03:24] <phillw> the +b bit did
[03:24] <k1l> "/quote remove #channel tsimonq2"
[03:25] <phillw> that worked !
[03:25] <phillw> cheers...
[03:33] <phillw> k1l: again, thank you. that channel is not a pure ubuntu channel, but many on there are.
[03:36] <k1l> yeah, no problem. as you can see i dont know the chanserv/ircd commands all by heart. i just use the very simple script commands for my hexchat plugin.
[03:39] <phillw> k1l: I did learn the basics, many moons ago (like when UBT was running) my master parted to become a freenode staffer and I was handed onto a new master. As such, I have a lot of patience for padawans.. but this one has gone over the tip of rules too many times now. As the last ones happened when his trainer was on vacation. Him off there and chat to his master is in order. His chances of getting ubuntu-membership are now zero.
