These are the available user modes you may set on your nickname. To set a user mode, you issue a MODE command with your nickname. For example, if your nickname was "SomeNick" and you wanted to set user mode +R on yourself, then you would type "/mode SomeNick +R". To unset that mode later, you would do "/mode SomeNick -R". Of course, these are examples - replace "SomeNick" with your own nickname when using these modes.
The following user modes are available for use on Xertion. To set one of these, issue a MODE command for your nickname, e.g <code>/mode YourNick +i</code> would set user mode +i for yourself (if your nickname was "YourNick"; replace with your actual nickname). To remove a usermode, use <code>/mode YourNick -(mode letter)</code>, replacing mode letter with the letter of the usermode to remove.
