- 3 - Protecting Your Nick
This step is necessary only if you want to use the nick protection aspect of nick regestration. To turn protection on, type
/msg nickserv set kill onWith this option turned on, anyone who logs onto the server with the nick you registered in Step 1 will be killed (chucked off the server) UNLESS they identify with the correct password within 60 seconds. If you want to turn this time limit down to 20 seconds, use
/msg nickserv set kill quickbut be warned... it is mighty annoying (and embarrassing) if you forget to identify and are killed right after you join the chat. If for any reason you want to turn off kill protection at any time, type
/msg nickserv set kill off
