7We have loaded a new module on the network which provides the $j extban type:
8
9
10<blockquote>$j:<chan> - matches users who are or are not banned from a specified channel</blockquote>
11
12
13As an example...
14
15
16<blockquote>/mode #here +b $j:#timbuktu</blockquote>
17
18
19...would ban users from #here that are banned (+b) in #timbuktu.
20
21Please note that there are a couple of gotchas:
22
23
24
25
26 * Only matching +b list entries are checked. Quiets (+q) Exemptions (+e) & invexes (+I) are NOT then considered. As such, the following mode change would not alter the behaviour of the first example:
27
28
29
30
31<blockquote>/mode #timbuktu +e *!*@*</blockquote>
32
33
34
35
36
37
38 * Quiets and the quieting effect of bans may not immediately take effect on #here when #timbuktu's ban list changes due to caching by the ircd.
39
40
41 * $j isn't recursive. Any $j extbans set in #timbuktu are ignored when matching in #here.
42
43
44We imagine you'll have some more useful use cases than the above.
