RE: [cgiirc-general] moderating irc chat

[<egg...@sj...>]

Hello,

that has nothing to do with CGI:IRC. You just setup your channel and
moderate it. Then it affects all deoped and devoiced users whether they are
using mIRC, CGI:IRC or any other IRC client. When you want your users
(either client type) to be able to speak in the channel you (an operator of
a channel) just unset +m again for the time being.
For me it sounds like you are not very familiar with IRC, if so:
To moderate your channel as an operator (@): /mode #your-channel +m
To unmoderate your channel as an operator (@): /mode #your-channel -m
Most IRC clients (like mIRC) supports (un)setting modes with a few clicks
with the mouse.
Operators can at any time speak to a moderated channel so can voiced (users
with a +) users. It is possible to allow certain people to be able to write
all the time by giving them +v without giving them full access to the
channel being able to kick/ban others.
IRC is the ideal way of having lectures like you described it due to the
features it provides.
Good luck with your lectures.

Best regards Soren Jensen

Subject: [cgiirc-general] moderating irc chat


Hello.  I downloaded and installed CGI-IRC.  I have a question about
creating a moderated chat session and I don't know if this has to do with
IRC itself, or with the client.  We wish to conduct a weekly
seminar/lecture series, at which time our guest speaker will address the
audience (via IRC).  My question is, can we stop (moderate) others from
having their chat post coming through while the speaker is conducting the
lecture, then when he or she has finished the lecture, open up discussion
with the visitors for Q&A?

Thanks.
Bob
