<h1>Users and Flags<a class="headerlink" href="#users-and-flags" title="Link to this heading">¶</a></h1>
<p>People on IRC are recognized by the bot according to their nick!user@host. That is, if I am on IRC as:</p>
<blockquote>
<div><p>*** Robey is robey@hubcap.clemson.edu (i hate milk)</p>
</div></blockquote>
<p>Eggdrop will identify me according to “Robey!robey@hubcap.clemson.edu” and not only by my nickname.</p>
<p>Eggdrop does not have access levels like some bots. There are no meaningless numbers or titles. Instead, each user has “flags” that entitle them to certain privileges. Think of a flag as a badge. Any user can have any number of flags – you can have no flags, or you can have all of them. Some flags are good, some are bad. Each flag is identified by a letter. A channel flag applies only to a specific channel, and a global flag applies to all channels. The standard global flags are:</p>
<blockquote>
<div><table class="docutils align-default">
<thead>
<tr class="row-odd"><th class="head"><p>Flag</p></th>
<th class="head"><p>Attribute</p></th>

people you trust completely.</p></td>

</table>
<p>All global flags other then u, h, b, c, x, j, and p are also
channel-specific flags. Flags are set with the chattr command.
The syntax for this command is:</p>
<div class="highlight-default notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="n">chattr</span> <span class="o"><</span><span class="n">nickname</span><span class="o">></span> <span class="p">[</span><span class="n">attributes</span><span class="p">]</span> <span class="p">[</span><span class="n">channel</span><span class="p">]</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>There are also 26 global user-defined flags and 26 channel user-defined flags (Capital letters A through Z). These are used by scripts, and their uses vary depending on the script that uses them.</p>
