SILENCE is similar in many respects to IGNORE, except that it is
|
|
|
|
server-based. What this means is the server will never even send
|
|
|
|
you messages from anyone you have SILENCEd, whereas it will with
|
|
|
|
IGNORE, where your client is responsible for filtering the messages
|
|
|
|
out. This has the advantage of not bogging your client down with
|
|
|
|
excessive data as it tries to filter out messages.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The default behavior is to SILENCE a nick!user@host pattern, and
|
|
|
|
if such a pattern is not passed as the argument, it must be prepended
|
|
|
|
with a plus ('+') to be added to your silence list. If a pattern is
|
|
|
|
prepended with a minus ('-'), it will be removed from your silence list.
|
|
|
|
If you only specify a nickname, you can list the patterns in the
|
|
|
|
silence list owned by that nickname. If no arguments are given, your
|
|
|
|
own silence list is displayed.
