Nick Prefixes Explained
Nick prefixes are the symbols which you see at the start of some people’s nicknames. GeekShed uses 5 different prefixes for nicknames.
- ~ for owners – to get this, you need to be +q in the channel
- & for admins – to get this, you need to be +a in the channel
- @ for full operators – to get this, you need to be +o in the channel
- % for half operators – to get this, you need to be +h in the channel
- + for voiced users – to get this, you need to be +v in the channel
- Users with no status in the channel will have no nick prefix
These prefixes let you better understand who owns a channel and who the senior admins and other moderators are.

Development of the bot system was put on hold for the last few months but it has started again. I hope to have it running soon.
