This is the list of all user modes that can be set on a user. You can only set user modes on yourself and not on other users. Use the command: MODE yournick +modeshere.
| User mode | Module | Description | Restrictions |
|---|---|---|---|
| B | usermodes/bot | Marks you as being a bot. This will add a line to /WHOIS so people can easily recognize bots. | |
| d | built-in | Makes it so you can not receive channel PRIVMSG's, except for messages prefixed with a set::channel-command-prefix character. Could be used by bots to reduce traffic so they only see !somecmd type of things. | |
| D | usermodes/privdeaf | Makes it so you can not receive private messages (PM's) from anyone except IRCOps, servers and services. | |
| G | usermodes/censor | Swear filter: filters out all the "bad words" configured in the Badword block | |
| H | built-in | Hide IRCop status. Regular users using /WHOIS or other commands will not see that you are an IRC Operator. | IRCOp-only |
| I | built-in | Hide online time in /WHOIS. | see set block for more details: set::hide-idle-time |
| i | built-in | Makes you so called 'invisible'. A confusing term to mean that you're just hidden from /WHO and /NAMES if queried by someone outside the channel. Normally set by default through set::modes-on-connect and often by the users' IRC client as well. | |
| o | built-in | IRC Operator | Set by server |
| p | usermodes/privacy | Hide channels you are in from /WHOIS, for extra privacy. | |
| q | usermodes/nokick | Unkickable (only by U:lines, eg: services) | IRCOp-only (but not all) |

| s | built-in | Server notices for IRCOps, see Snomasks | IRCOp-only |
| T | usermodes/noctcp | Prevents you from receiving CTCP's. | |
| t | built-in | Indicates you are using a /VHOST | Set by server upon /VHOST, /OPER, /*HOST, .. |
| W | usermodes/showwhois | Lets you see when people do a /WHOIS on you. | IRCOp-only |
| w | built-in | Can listen to wallops messages (/WALLOPS from IRCOps') | |
| x | built-in | Gives you a hidden / cloaked hostname. | |
| Z | usermodes/secureonlymsg | Allows only users on a secure connection to send you private messages/notices/CTCPs. Conversely, you can't send any such messages to non-secure users either. | |
| z | built-in | Indicates you are connected via SSL/TLS | Set by server |
