Used for setting channel and user modes.
/mode <nick|#channel> [+-modes]
If you're setting user modes you will have to specify your own nick. You cannot change user modes for other users. Neither can you view another user's usermodes using /mode. Channel modes can only set by a channel operator. However you can view the current channel modes even if you're not a channel op.
Depending on the network you're using there might be different channel and user modes. Here is a list of channel modes which are available on QuakeNet:
| Mode | Meaning |
| +b | Ban (Parameter: a hostmask) |
| +o | Op (Parameter: a nick) |
| +v | Voice (Parameter: a nick) |
| +k | Channel key (Parameter: the key for your channel) |
| +l | Channel limit (Parameter: the new limit) |
| +i | Invite only (users need to be invited using /invite before they can join your channel) |
| +M | Moderate for non-authed users (regular non-authed users cannot speak in the channel) |
| +m | Moderated (only ops and voices can speak in the channel) |
| +n | No external messages (only users who are on the channel can speak) |
| +p | Private (this channel mode is deprecated, use +s instead) |
| +s | Secret (channel will not be shown in /list or /whois) |
| +T | Deny multiple channel messages (messages with multiple channel targets, like /amsg, cannot be sent to channels having +T set) |
| +t | Only ops can set the topic |
| +r | Only registered users can join the channel (see the Q faq for more details) |
| +D | Auditorium mode (user are invisible until they say something or change the topic/modes) |
