IRC-style Commands for FlashChat

Options for Users

/away	Sets user as away. Typing this command again sets user as "here". This action may also slow down the chat ping time for the "away" user, depending on the setting of msgRequestIntervalAway, which is set in /inc/config.php
/here	Sets user as here. This reverses the "away" and "busy" states.
/busy	Sets user as busy. Typing this command again sets user as "here".
/back	Shows the last entries of the room's chat, including any chat text that was present before arrival to the room.
/backtime	Shows the last minutes of the room's chat, including any chat text that was present before arrival to the room.
/clear	Clears the chat screen. This only affects your screen, not the screen of other users.
/me <action>	Issues an IRC-like "action" to the chat. "/me" will be changed to your user name, and the text in <action> will appear as a system message. For example: "/me is thinking" would translate to "Joe is thinking".
/join <room>	Switches the user to <room>. For example: "/join The Lounge"
/part	Logout of the chat.
/quit	Logout of the chat.
/logout	Logout of the chat.
/version	Shows which version of the chat you are using.
/invite <user>	Invites "user" to the room that you are currently in.
/ignore <user>	Ignores "user" until /unignore "user" is issued
/?	Display a list of currently available IRC commands.
/helpall	Display a list of all available IRC commands.
/whowas <user>	This only works when FlashChat is used in a registered-users manner (not the "free for all" chat mode). Shows profile page for any registered user.
/whois <user>	Same as /whowas, but the user must be logged in.
/motd	Displays the message of the day, as defined in /appdata/motd.txt
/sos <message>	Alerts moderator in the current room of your message. Message text is optional. Message behaves like an /alert
/names	Shows a list of all user names in all public rooms.
/showignores	Shows who you are ignoring, and who is ignoring you.

Options for Moderators

/kick <user>	This kicks "user" from the room. In actual use, you don't include the "<" and ">" symbols. If the user's name contains one or more spaces, enclose the user name in double quotes: /kick "Bill Gates".
/boot <user>	Same as /kick and /kickroom
/ban <user>	Bans "user" from the chat. Same as /kickout <user>
/banip <user>	Bans the IP address of the user from all chat activity. This will prevent a user from re-logging in using some other alias.
