==whois==
Syntax:
/whois <nickname>
Displays a short information about the given nick.
 
==query==
Syntax:
/query <nickname>
Starts a private chat with the selected nickname.
 
==quote==
Syntax:
/quote <command> (or /raw <command>)
Sends the given command directly to the server so it will be not processed by the client program (for example client command "/connect" has different function than server command "/quote connect")
 
==shun==
Syntax:
/shun <nickname|+ident@host> <time> :reason
This command requires you to have operator privileges, it forces the server to ignore any incomming commands from the given nick(this includes also common chat, be it public or private) or address except for ping responses and /admin command. The great power of this command includes a feature of NOT notifying the shunned nick about this silent "ban". Thanks to it, the shun command is the best way to get rid of troublemaking persons.
