***oriansj sets mode: -q $~a
<oriansj>I guess forgetting to set expiration dates is my rushed mistake
***muurkha_ is now known as muurkha
<muurkha>hello
<muurkha>thank you!
<muurkha>I didn't even know about $~a
<oriansj>well for the most part we try not to ban people; pulling of the voice is generally reserved for people who can't take the hint of being kicked by those who have ops that they need to rethink what they are doing
<oriansj>and that usually doesn't happen until after they miss the more civilized hints prior
<muurkha>I think I was only unidentified because I reconnected as muurkha_
<muurkha>which I'm guessing is what $~a means
<oriansj>$~a means all unregistered users
<oriansj>so +q $~a straight up devoices everyone who has an unregistered nick
<oriansj>we set it when dealing with a troll who is willing to change names
<oriansj>as it a much more civilized alternative to doing +r which would prevent them from reading an learning how to behave better.
<muurkha>right
<janus>does a devoiced user know they have been devoiced?
<oriansj>janus: well if I remember correctly yes (please correct if incorrect)
<muurkha>janus: if they try to speak I think they do
<bauen1>yes, if you log in and aren't registered libera will inform you that you can't speak
