Services
- What is HostServ?🔗
HostServ
HostServ allows NickServ-registered users to request vhosts ('vanity hosts' or 'virtual hosts') which personalise
/whois
appearance by altering what users see after the@
sign in your identifier. To prevent abuse of the feature (e.g. to ban-evade), vhosts are approved by staff.Note: On Darkmyst, VHOSTs must follow certain guidelines to be accepted.
- GROUP command🔗
Help for GROUP: This command will set the current nick's vHost as the vHost for all the nicks in the group, including nicks that will be added in the future. Syntax: GROUP Examples: /msg HostServ GROUP
- OFF command🔗
Help for OFF: Deactivates the vHost currently assigned to the nick in use. When you use this command, any user who performs a /whois on your nick will see your real IP address. For permanent removal of your vHost, please see network staff. Syntax: OFF Examples: /msg HostServ OFF
- OFFER command🔗
Help for OFFER: OFFER allows you to offer a list of vHosts to the users of your network that they can accept at will without needing an oper to set the vHost. The string $account in the offered vHost will be replaced by a users' account name when they TAKE it. If the !group parameter is provided, only users with the +v flag in that group will be able to see it in OFFERLIST and TAKE it. Syntax: OFFER [!group] <vHost> Examples: /msg HostServ OFFER may.explode.on.impact /msg HostServ OFFER mynetwork.users.$account /msg HostServ OFFER !atheme-users $account.users.atheme.net
- OFFERLIST command🔗
Help for OFFERLIST: OFFERLIST lists all vHosts currently available from the network staff. Syntax: OFFERLIST Examples: /msg HostServ OFFERLIST
- ON command🔗
Help for ON: Activates the vHost currently assigned to the nick in use. When you use this command any user who performs a /whois on you will see the vHost instead of your real IP address. Syntax: ON Examples: /msg HostServ ON
