Mental state of User:Peorth Bans
Rizon staff does NOT deal with channel bans.
 
If you were banned from a channel, and believe that you should be unbanned instead of waiting the ban out,
you're going to have to talk to a channel operator, preferably the one who banned you, or the channel founder.
 
Finding out whom you can contact:
 
==Who banned you?==
You can find out which ban is stopping you from joining the channel by typing '''/msg chanserv checkban #channel'''
 
Example:
<pre>-ChanServ- The ban *!*@Rizon-532B9C4A.internet.com set by Peter prevents you from joining #channel.</pre>
 
View the channel's ban list, it might appear in the server/status window:
'''/mode #channelname +b'''
 
Example:
<pre>#channelname *!*user@*.internet.com set by Peter!~peter@2FCB67A1.CF724B5E.853B28F6.IP (Wed Nov 19 12:32:39)
#channelname sarah!*@* set by killer100!die@in.a.fire (Wed Nov 16 04:16:58)
#channelname End of Channel Ban List</pre>
 
You can see that the first ban was set by Peter, the second one by killer100.
 
If you are still unsure about which of the bans matches you, do a whois on yourself:
 
'''/whois yournick'''
 
Example:
<pre>yournick is ~user@Rizon-532B9C4A.internet.com * *
yournick on +#chat #Rizon
yournick using irc.rizon.net - Where are you?
yournick is using modes +ix authflags: [none]
yournick is actually ~user@xyz.internet.com [1.2.3.4]
yournick has been idle 2mins 8secs, signed on Wed Dec 03 03:57:45
yournick End of /WHOIS list.</pre>
 
 
Note:
 
If you somehow managed to ban yourself then you can, with sufficient access (by default AOP/5 or higher), unban yourself via
 
'''/msg ChanServ unban #channel'''
 
 
If you want to unban someone else then you can do so via
 
'''/mode #channel -b banmask'''
 
(banmask being a ban from the channel's ban list.)
 
==Who is the channel founder?==
View the channel's information including the founder's nick:
 
'''/msg ChanServ info #channelname'''
 
Example:
 
<pre>-ChanServ- Information for channel #channelname:
-ChanServ- Founder: killer100
-ChanServ- Description: #channelname
-ChanServ- Registered: Jul 18 10:03:29 2006 EDT
-ChanServ- Last used: Dec 02 21:50:31 2008 EST
-ChanServ- Last topic: Wecome to #channelname!
-ChanServ- Topic set by: killer100</pre>
 
==Messaging the particular channel operator/founder==
Open a private query with that person, and kindly ask about the ban.
 
'''/query nickname'''
Or, if the user if offline,
'''/msg memoserv SEND <u>nick</u> <u>message</u>'''
 
If they decide to keep you banned, you will have to accept that and deal with it.
