nonick Channel mode +N
nonotice Channel mode +T
regmoderated Channel mode +M
repeat Channel mode +E
stripcolor Channel mode +S

<helpop key="extbans" title="Extended Bans" value="
Extbans are split into two types; matching extbans, which match on
users in additional ways, and acting extbans, which restrict users
in different ways to a standard ban.
To use an extban, simply set +b <ban> or +e <ban> with it as the ban,
instead of a normal nick!user@host mask, to ban or exempt matching
users. Ban exceptions on acting extbans exempt that user from matching
an extban of that type, and from any channel mode corresponding to the
restriction. Matching extbans may also be used for invite exceptions by
setting +I <extban>.
Matching extbans:
a:<mask> Matches user with both a matching banmask and real name,
where <mask> is in the format nick!user@host+realname
(requires gecosban module).
j:<channel> Matches anyone in the given channel. Does not support
wildcards (requires the channelban module).
n:<class> Matches users in a matching connect class (requires
the classban module).
r:<realname> Matches users with a matching real name (requires the
gecosban module).
s:<server> Matches users on a matching server (requires the
serverban module).
z:<certfp> Matches users having the given TLS (SSL) certificate
fingerprint (requires the sslmodes module).
O:<opertype> Matches server operators of a matching type, mostly
useful as an invite exception (requires the
operchans module).
R:<account> Matches users logged into a matching account (requires
the services account module).
U:<banmask> Matches unregistered users matching the given banmask.
(requires the services account module).
Acting extbans:
c:<banmask> Blocks any messages that contain formatting codes from
matching users (requires the blockcolor module).
m:<banmask> Blocks messages from matching users (requires the muteban
module). Users with +v or above are not affected.
p:<banmask> Blocks part messages from matching users (requires
the nopartmsg module).
A:<banmask> Blocks invites by matching users even when +A is set
(requires the allowinvite module).
B:<banmask> Blocks all capital or nearly all capital messages from
matching users (requires the blockcaps module).
C:<banmask> Blocks CTCPs from matching users (requires the noctcp
module).
N:<banmask> Blocks nick changes from matching users (requires
the nonicks module).
Q:<banmask> Blocks kicks by matching users (requires the nokicks
module).
S:<banmask> Strips formatting codes from messages from matching
users (requires the stripcolor module).
T:<banmask> Blocks notices from matching users (requires the
nonotice module).
A ban given to an Acting extban may either be a nick!user@host mask
(unless stated otherwise), matched against users as for a normal ban,
or a Matching extban.
There is an additional special type of extended ban, a redirect ban:
Redirect n!u@h#channel will redirect the banned user to #channel
when they try to join (requires the banredirect module).
