Operator commands
These commands only apply to the channel operator. Usually the first person to create the private channel becomes the operator of that channel. You can tell who is the operator of a channel by looking for the user with the gavel. When the channel operator leaves, he can pass on the gavel to any one else that he designates.

/ban [user name] ��� (Example: /ban Slayer or /ban #1234) - Kicks a user out of the channel and prevents them from returning until the current operator steps down or leaves the channel. This is the most powerful command at an operator's disposal, use it wisely.
