[Help]Can't join my own IRC reddit / irc ---------------------------------------------------------------------- NurseBoB1337 · 2018-01-16 07:56 Hello all,I'm new to IRC.Today i made my very own channel and mode locked it to private,invite only.After closing my client (Hexchat) and trying to reconnect it showed the follwing * Cannot join #WhiteWind (Channel is invite only) I also tried using these commands to get in,but it says access denied /msg ChanServ OP #channel nickname /msg ChanServ INVITE #channel nickname Some commands i entered before losing access are: /msg NickServ REGISTER yourPassword your@email.address /msg NickServ CONFIRM ConfirmationCodeFromEmail /msg ChanServ SET #channel OWNERMODE ON /msg ChanServ SET #channel PROTECTMODE ON /msg ChanServ SYNC #channel /msg NickServ IDENTIFY /msg NickServ SET ENFORCE ON /msg Chanserv SET #channelname MLOCK +prsi Can anyone please help me get access back ---------------------------------------------------------------------- namenamee · 2018-01-16 09:32 Try "/msg Chanserv SET #channelname MLOCK +prs-i"? Of course you have to identify your nickname first. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- NurseBoB1337 · 2018-01-16 14:08 Hi, I got access back. I first identified my nick and then used /msg ChanServ OP #channelname nick /msg ChanServ INVITE #channelname nick Is there any way to make it so I can always join my channel without issues? It's on the Rizon network. Thanks in advance. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- theLJR · 2018-01-16 19:33 Maybe add your command for access to perform on connect in your irc client. I use it in mirc to identify myself to nickserv when I connect. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- NurseBoB1337 · 2018-01-17 03:35 Hello, I will definitely try this. I was playing around with it last night and I discovered that if I identify myself I can always use /msg ChanServ INVITE #channelname nick and get myself invited. Thanks for the reply. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- leshoop · 2018-01-17 05:13 Once you identify to nickserv you can have chanserv invite you to the channel using the second command you listed, you don't have to use the OP command on your nick while not in the channel, it won't do anything since you're not already in the channel. Since you mentioned being on Rizon, you can set an invite exempt for your nick or host, it should allow you to join your channel without having chanserv invite you to it. While actually in your channel (or just identified to nickserv) you can type the following to have your nickname added to your channel's invite exempt list. /mode #channelname +I nick!*@* I would advise against doing the following since you mentioned you're new to IRC, but if you want to be more specific with the exempt you can do it using your host instead of nick with this command: /mode #channelname +I *!*@*.net You can find your host by using the /whois yournick command. If I /whois ChanServ on Rizon it returns something like this: - whois for: ChanServ (service@rizon.net) - @rizon.net is the host part, therefore your invite host exempt command would look like the following: /mode #channelname +I *!*@rizon.net Realistically though, using only your nick for the invite exempt is more than sufficient. If you have any questions you can send me a message on reddit.

[Botserv wiki page](https://wiki.rizon.net/index.php?title=BotServ_commands) Happy IRC'ing! Edit: Added some extra info and tried to simplify some of the things I originally wrote. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- NurseBoB1337 · 2018-01-17 06:13 This is valuable information, thank you. I'll add an invite exempt for my nick and read the wiki links.
