IRC Policy

Introduction

The KampungChat IRC Network is an Internet Relay Chat (IRC) network aimed at providing a comfortable and safe chatting environment.

All information contained within KampungChat’s policies and procedures includes organizational structure, administrative procedures, and services provided.

It is KampungChat’s goal to enable users to chat comfortably and safely on this server, supported by staff who can assist when needed. As a KampungChat user, you are required to adhere to all established policies and procedures and refrain from engaging in any illegal activities on the server.

Services Provided at KampungChat

A. Channel Registration
Users can easily register their own channels, unlike on some servers where it’s more difficult to do so. KampungChat offers Chanserv as a service agent for channel registration, allowing users to assign various powers such as Super OP, Auto OP, Half OP, and Voice OP to channel members.

KampungChat reserves the right to suspend and close any channels engaged in prohibited activities such as drones, warez, flooding, or any actions deemed to compromise the safety of the KampungChat server.

B. Nickname Registration
Users can register various nicknames that suit them. Nicknames must be registered with a valid email because you will receive a code from the service to complete the nickname registration process. Incorrect or non-functional email addresses will prevent successful registration. Any nicknames deemed inappropriate will be dealt with decisively by KampungChat staff.

Users are discouraged from sharing passwords with others; if such activity is detected, the associated nickname may be suspended. This precaution is to mitigate risks such as nickname takeovers and misuse by others to harm users.

For password issues, users can contact staff at #help or #operhelp, or via email at [email protected]. For takeover issues and similar concerns, users can refer to staff at #help.

C. IRC Operator Services
IRC Operators at KampungChat offer services to help users resolve issues related to the services provided. Additionally, they are responsible for overseeing user behavior and maintaining server stability.

D. Assistance
KampungChat also offers assistance services via email at [email protected], through the website, and online at #help.
