[TriLUG] IRC

[Jeremy Portzer]

As others have already pointed out, I made a mistake in setting the 
channel modes.  My sincere apologizes; and thanks to Mike Johnson for 
fixing this.

Actually, I wasn't intending to set the channel modes at all.  Apparently 
the /mode command command uses an obscure syntax; if you want to set the 
modes of three people separately, you do something like this:
	/mode +vvv nick1 nick2 nick3
If you just do this:
	/mode +v nick1 nick2 nick3
Then for some reason the characters in "nick1" get interpreted as 
additional mode letters, causing confusion.
