ROOT AUTOKILL

Usage: AUTOKILL [ADD|DEL] <hostmask> [<reason>] [<time>] [FORCEADD]

This command will add or delete an autokill from services. The format of an AUTOKILL is ident@host. Roots can place akills that affect more than 20% of the users on the network. If you do not specify a time the autokill will be removed within 30 minutes by services. Only CSops and roots can place permanent autokills in the format ident@host reason PERM.

Roots can only autokill more than 55% of the network if the FORCEADD argument is added as the very last line of the autokill. If the forceadd argument is not added and the autokill would affect more than 55% of the network's users, services will not add the autokill.

Examples:
/msg operserv autokill mirc@*.com clones 45 FORCEADD
/msg operserv autokill pirch@*.oricom.ca spamming 60

It is unlikely that you will ever have a reason to autokill such a large percentage of your network. These safeguards are designed to keep you from doing so by accident. But if you have a reason to do so, the option is available. You should be careful that your autokill does not also affect you.
