== 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:*"
