What is the mIRC

mIRC is an interlay chat program used to link people all over the world. The creator of this program is known as Khaled-Mardam Beg. mIRC attempts to provide a user-friendly interface for use with the Internet Relay Chat network. The IRC network is a virtual meeting place where people from all over the world can meet and talk. mIRC is the first step to make a Script. It leads a simple mIRC to an excellent script due to the hardwork of the owner. Some of official websites from where you can download a simple mirc are http://www.mirc.co.uk and http://www.mirc.com . These websites are owned by Khaled-Mardam Beg.

Are you new to IRC? Then here are a few tips for you =)

Getting on IRC

To get on IRC, first you must have mIRC. You can download the latest and the newest versions from the #mIRC Homepage or the mIRC homepage itself

Once you get the file, double click on it, or go to Start and then the Run option and type in C:\directory\to\mirc4ts.exe Naturally you will have to replace the directory and file name with the real ones.

This will bring you to the installation part of mIRC. Click OK. Then select the mIRC icon and your running mIRC!

Once you have run mirc.exe, a windows will come up asking you what your Name, Email, Nick and Alternative Nick is. For Name put your Real Name. For email put your email address, for nick put the nick you choose (Mine is b|gTo0t), and for Alternative Nick put the second choice of Nicks you would like (Mine is b|gTo0t-). Not everyone puts their real name or email address, so you don't have to =)

Click on Connect to IRC Server. This should be automatically set to a random DALnet Server

Connected to IRC

When your connected to IRC you must register your nick

To do this, type /nickserv REGISTER password Email

You must fill in password with one you make up. A good password (so no one can hack it) consists of numbers and letters such as JohNNy123. Passwords are Case Sensitive. That means that Star is not the same as star or STAR.

If the nick that you have chosen is already registered NickServ will ask you to identify for that nick or nickserv will change your nick to a Guest's nick. A typical Guest nick consists of Guest with 4 or 5 numbers following. Example: Guest12345.

If you dont want anyone else to use your nick set your Kill On

To do this, first identify for your nick by doing /identify password Everytime you get onto IRC you must identify for your nick. Then to set your kill on type /nickserv set kill on

Making your own Channel

First, your nick must be registered, see above for details

Second, Join an unregistered channel, such as /join #this-is-my-channel

Third, make sure you are oped (Have an @ beside your nick)

Then type /chanserv REGISTER #channel password description

The description is what is the channel about. Example: /chanserv REGISTER #this-is-my-channel MyPass1234 A friendly chat channel

Just like with nicks, the password is Case Sensitive. Make sure that you remember the password since it will be needed in the future

After you have registerd your channel to you, you should set a mode lock and other options on it.

Recommended Mode Lock is, /chanserv set #channel Mlock +tnr-smilkpR - The + is for the modes you want and the - is for the modes you dont want

You should set the KEEPTOPIC Option on, /chanserv set #channel Keeptopic ON This will make sure that the topic will stay even if no one is in the channel. This option is also known as sticky topics.

To give AOps and SOps

To give SOp (They can set other users as AOps, but cannot claim the channel as their own or add other SOps) type /chanserv SOP #channel ADD nick

To give AOp (They can set other users as Temporary Ops, but cannot add other AOps) type /chanserv AOP #channel ADD nick
