Is it possible to stop users from creating new channels on /join so that the only channels they have access to are those on the official channels list?

Is it just a simple case of creating this:

deny channel {
channel "#*";
reason no user created channels;
};

Our network is very topic specific and we don't want people branching out into channels that are not related to our site.

Cheers in advance, thanks.

that deny channel block will work, just be sure to make blocks for the channels users are allowed to jon

Personally i would use a deny channel block on the mask * since #* wont block the channel # and then an allow channel block for every authorized channel.

Cheers dudes, thanks for the help.

Jobe: You are aware * means zero or more characters of any value, not one or more characters of any value, right?

Jason, yes i am aware of what it is supposed to mean.

The problem is it doesnt act that way in the experiance i have had with using deny channel blocks.

Fun. Bugreport it!
