Examples

Hey, what about adding an "example" column or section for each of the commands like:

Suppose you want to register your username "MyGreatUsername" (spaces are not allowed) with the password "secret". Log in as "MyGreatUsername". To register type:

/msg nickserv register secret

Every time you log back in your must type:

/msg nickserv identify secret

Depending on what chat program you use, you may program it so that it executes this action automatically every time you log in. If you get disconnected and your nickname is still present, you must first kill your "ghosted" nickname:

/msg nickserv ghost secret

You can then use your registered nickname:

/nick MyGreatUsername

/msg nickserv identify secret

If someone impersonates you or otherwise uses your registered nickname you can get your nickname back with the release and recover commands:

/msg nickserv recover secret

/msg nickserv release secret

The examples are not as critical for chanserv commands. --Stux 20:27, 4 December 2005 (UTC)

Help Nav Template?

Oooo... I was just thinking, perhaps a Help Navigation Template and/or a Help Category might be great to make it easy for users to navigate the help and find what they need... ? --Stux 20:32, 4 December 2005 (UTC)
