NickServ is our authentication and nickname management bot here on DareNET. It provides numerous features that help users maintain their account, and claim ownership of nicknames. This document describes the different commands and features that NickServ provides.
Usage
You can communicate with NickServ via private message, or through server-side aliases, as shown below:
- /msg NickServ <text>
- /msg NickServ@services.darenet.org <text>
- /NickServ <text>
- /NS <text>
For the purpose of this document, we will be using the first two methods listed, as some IRC clients do not readily support server-side aliases without additional setup and/or client commands. However, you can choose to use any of the above methods.
