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.
