@SYNTAX:silence@
Works only in the Undernet.
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.
