== How to use matrix as an IRC client to join #fsci == | |||
* See [https://gist.github.com/fstab/ce805d3001600ac147b79d413668770d this guide] for freenode specific instructions | |||
< | # On Matrix, open a new chat (with Riot app this is the "+" sign on the bottom right) | ||
# Invite @oftc-irc:matrix.org to the new chat | |||
# Say !nick <yournick> | |||
# A request for new chat with NickServ will pop up (if not invite @_oftc_NickServ:matrix.org). Accept it. | |||
< | # Send "REGISTER <password> <email>" to register your nickname. | ||
< | # "identify <password>" can be used to authenticate (in case the bridge reconnects) | ||
< | |||
== Fighting IRC spam == | |||
The following commands should be sent to '''@oftc-irc:matrix.org''' for OFTC channels or '''@appservice-irc:matrix.org''' for Freenode channels. | |||
''Unlist the room from directory''' | |||
This effectively stops all mass spamming attacks. | |||
* From Matrix: | |||
!cmd MODE #<channel name> +s | |||
* From IRC: | |||
"/mode #<channel name> +s" | |||
1. '''Quiet all unregistered users:''' | |||
* From Matrix: | |||
"!cmd MODE #<channel name> +q $~a" | |||
* From IRC: | |||
"/mode #<channel name> +q $~a" | |||
2. '''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:*" |
