*Or why I am in umode -iI*
*Or why am I using umode -iI and thus showing all channels that I am on at
IRC? So you can find channels that may interest you if we have similar
interests.*
People ask this question from me a lot, often the same people as they don't
remember my answer.
@ -21,23 +23,9 @@ and if that happens to you, you can simply send logs to network operators
and if they are good opers, they will take action. Even freenode staffers
have took action [which is a surprise.](https://github.com/Mikaela/freenode-harassment)
## Being umode -iI by yourself
Simply use `umode -iI` or if that is unknown command (as it's alias in most
of clients), `/mode YOURNICK -iI` and your channel list is visible to
people who `/whois` you.
It's not automatic though as networks set specific umodes on connect so you
will need to setup that as automatic command when connecting to network.
Some examples:
* HexChat: Open network list, select network and click `edit`, open tab
`Connect commands`, click `add` and type `umode -iI`.
* WeeChat: `/set irc.server_default.command /mode $nick -iI`
* ZNC: `/msg *status loadmod perform` and `/msg *perform add mode %nick% -iI`
* The same can also be done in webadmin and if you load perform for
user level, adding the command `mode %nick% -iI` will set umode -iI
on all networks.
***This section on (un)setting umodes was broken and moved [here]({% post_url 2015-06-03-setting-umodes %})***
*Update on 2015-04-13: add umode -I which is the InspIRCd way of hiding
all channels from whois depending on the modules loaded and IRCd config.*

*As I have written more about umodes than I thought, I am breaking the
posts setting/unsetting is documented here and I will link here from other
posts.*
Simply use `/umode +mo-des` or if that is unknown command (as it's alias
in most of clients), use `/mode YOURNICK +mo-des` and you set umodes "mo"
and unset "des". *These might not be real umodes and they are here just as
an example.*
## Automatic umodes
Umodes aren't remembered across connections so you must configure your
client to (un)set them automatically.
*These examples use the umodes that I am using at the time of writing.*
* HexChat: Open network list, select network and click `edit`, open tab
`Connect commands`, click `add` and type `umode -iI+wRQxg`.
* WeeChat
* now: `/set irc.server_default.command /mode $nick -iI+wRQxg`
* [future?](https://github.com/weechat/weechat/issues/377) *write this
if the future happens.*
* ZNC: `/msg *status loadmod perform` and `/msg *perform add mode %nick% -iI+wRQxg`
* The same can also be done in webadmin and if you load perform for
user level, adding the command `mode %nick% -iI` will set umode -iI
on all networks.
### And what these umodes mean
* i — invisible, hides your channel list from whois with ircd-seven and
possibly some other ircds. Also hides you from /who of people who don't
share channels with you. [See also why I unset it here.](({% post_url 2015-03-26-umode--i %})
* I — On InspIRCd with [hidechans] module hides your channel list from
whois.
* w — receive wallops, less-important announcements from network operators
that are only received by those who are curious and have umode +w. More
important announcements are usually global notices.
* R — block PMs from unidentified users (who tend to be spambots and if
they aren't, they can identify to services).
* Q — block channel redirects on Charybdis (mode +f or banforward).
* x — activates IRCd based uncloaking even if it's [not that reliable](https://gist.github.com/maxteufel/1e2cf7ada079c271bd3c)
* g — caller-id, people must be `/accepted` or PMed before they can PM you.
