4 | Various modes can be set on users. Some of them can be set by the users, others |
5 | are set by the network. You can list your current user modes with the `/mode | |
6 | yourname` command. | |

c97f2197 | 8 | For those that can be set by users, `/mode yourname +mode` will work. |

10 | Keep in mind that all user modes are per session, so you have to set them again |
11 | every time you connect—most clients can automate this for you. | |

17 | | g<br>(caller-id) | Ignores private messages from unknown users, instead informing you someone is attempting to message you. You can choose to receive messages with the `/accept` command. Messaging a user automatically accepts them. | |
18 | | i<br>(invisible) | Hides you from global WHO/WHOIS by normal users, and shows only shared channels in /WHOIS output. | | |
19 | | Q<br>(disable forwarding) | Prevents channel forwards from affecting you. If a channel's modes prevent you from joining, you will receive the relevant error message regardless of any forwards. | | |
20 | | R<br>(block unidentified) | Ignores private messages from users who are not identified with services. | | |
21 | | w<br>(see wallops) | Subscribes you to /wallops messages from freenode staff. Used infrequently to highlight interesting announcements from the FOSS community. You will receive important network announcements irrespective of this setting. | | |
22 | | Z<br>(connected securely) | Set automatically by the network when you connect via SSL/TLS. | | |

9e1aa746 | 24 | By default, user mode +Z (connected securely using TLS) is set only if you are using a secure connection, and it cannot be unset during the session. User mode +i (invisible) is also set by default, and can be unset. Other user modes can be set, but are disabled by default. |
