ServerAdministration FromIRC

Overview

The official Wesnoth servers can be moderated via IRC from the moderator IRC channel - which you know the location of if you are a moderator.

Lobby chat, games, and other statistics are echoed at #wesnoth-mp-lobby-stable and #wesnoth-mp-lobby-dev.

Administration via IRC

Server administration commands are accessed via IRC by directing them to the lobby bot rather than using "/query" as is done on the server. For an action on the stable server direct commands to "lobby: ", and for the development server "lobby !dev: "

For example:

lobby: kick <mask> [<reason>]

kicks a user from the stable server.

Since knowing where a message is going is important, here is a list of message commands available in the moderation channel, all prefixed by "lobby: " or "lobby: !dev: "

<text>            sends a message to all server admins on the server (instead of the adminmsg command).

/msg <text>       sends a message to all users on the server, even if they are in a game.
 
/lobbymsg <text>  sends a message to all users in the lobby.
/pm <mask> <text> sends a private message to a user.
