Hacking IRC - The Definitive Guide Welcome to Hacking IRC- The Definitive Guide. The purpose of this page if you have not already guessed is to provide what I consider optimal methodology for hacking IRC channels. In addition, I provide some of the better channels to hack as well as fun things to do while "owning a channel." Contents * Section 1-- Why Hack IRC? * Section 2--Requisite Tools * Section 3--What It Takes To Gain Control * Section 4--Link Looker(LL) * Section 5--Bots and Scripts * Section 6--Multi-Collide-Bot(MCB) * Section 7--Pre-Takeover Preparation * Section 8--Thing To Do ONce You "Own" the Channel * Section 9--Best Channels to Hack [Image] See me if you dare. Section 1-Why Hack IRC? I have often asked myself this question and the answers are varied and numerous. One of the primary reasons for hacking IRC channels is due to shear boredom. However a multitude of secondary reasons exist. Foremost among these is the "that asshole op i nsulted me and/or kicked me and/or banned me from the channel and I WANT REVENGE! This is a perfectly valid excuse and boredom is not a necessary condition for implementing a takeover of an IRC channel. Nor is it a necessary condition that the reason yo u were insulted and/or kicked and/or banned was because in fact you are an asshole. All that is necessary is the will, the desire, a bit of skill, and of course the tools, which convieniently brings me to my next section. Section 2-Requisite Tools Any decent craftsmen needs a good set of tools and IRC hackers are no exception. Without the proper tools you are dead in the water. All of the tools I describe below are available on public ftp sites. Before I launch into a discussion of what you wil l need, it is important to point out that if you are reading this document from your ppp/slip account you might consider geeting a shell account if you are serious about hackin. Hacking IRC from a slip/ppp is much more complicated than doing so from a sh ell account. There are those who will debate this but my experience has shown that mIRC or any of the other shareware IRC programs for the PC are no match for the speed and ease of use that an IRC shell script allows for. Thus the first tool required fo r hacking is an excellent irc shell script. If you have already used IRC via a shell account and are still reading this document you probably already have a script, which means you are well on your way! As far as IRC shell scripts go, my personal favor ite is Lice - again available publically via ftpFTP. Other scripts exist but the richness and power of the LICE commands I believe is second to none. Now while it is possible to stop here and hack ops with just a script, you would effectively be putting yourself needlessly at a handicap. Therefore I reccommend these additional two tools: 1)Multi-Collide-Bot(MCB) and 2)LInk Looker(LL). These two C programs are your infantry and intellige nce respectively. Again both are available via FTP and both are C programs and therefore need to be compiled. What It Takes To Gain Control Without going into much detail clearly in order to effectively gain control of an IRC channel you must be the only op on your channel. If you are still clueless at this point, that is to say..You should be the only guy/gal with the @ in front of your nic k. Once you have accomplished this, the channel is YOURS. Of course, that is until it is taken back or you decide to cease hacking the channel. There are a number of ways to effectively gain ops on a channel and I will start with the simplest, then mov e to the increasingly more complex and finesse laden methods.
