+Send this "!cmd MODE #<channel name> +Me *!*@gateway/shell/matrix.org/*" to @appservice-irc:matrix.org to ban all unregistered nicks except matrix bridged users (for Freenode channels).
 On OFTC "!cmd MODE #<channel name> +Me *!*@2001:470:1af1:101::*" to @oftc-irc:matrix.org (For OFTC channels), though it does not seem to work, more here https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-appservice-irc/issues/716
+If the above command does not work, quieting all unregistered nicks except Matrix users is another way.
+The following commands should be sent to '''@oftc-irc:matrix.org''' for OFTC channels or '''@appservice-irc:matrix.org''' for Freenode channels.
+. '''Quiet all unregistered users:'''
+* From Matrix:
+    "!cmd MODE #<channel name> +q $~a"
+* From IRC:
+    "/mode #<channel name> +q $~a"
+. '''Add Matrix users to the exemption list'''
+* From Matrix:
+** For Freenode:
+    "!cmd MODE #<channel name> +e *!*@gateway/shell/matrix.org/*"
+** For OFTC:
+    "!cmd MODE #<channel name> +e *!*@2001:470:1af1:101:*"
+* From IRC:
+** For Freenode:
+    "/mode #<channel name> +e *!*@gateway/shell/matrix.org/*"
+** For OFTC:
+    "/mode #<channel name> +e *!*@2001:470:1af1:101:*"
