Conference / moderation

Conferencing is possible through the moderation facilities of channels. The “conf” channel and alias are available for conferences, although any channel can actually be moderated.

Channels have a few extra commands available when they are being moderated:

chan conf - shows the moderator, the current speaker, and

whether your hand is raised to speak. The

moderator will see a list of people with their

hands raised.

chan conf /raise - raise your hand to speak

chan conf /lower - lower your hand

chan conf /call - for moderator use: call on the first person in

the list of people with raised hands

chan conf /call joe - for moderator use: call on joe to speak (joe

must have his hand raised)

chan conf /moderate - for admin and moderator group member use: begin

moderating a particular channel

The current speaker and the moderator are the only people allowed to communicate over the channel (using normal messages, emotes, etc.).
