Thank you for your recent email about the procedure for becoming an IRC Operator.
IRC Operators are chosen for their abilities at running servers, routing the network, knowledge of IRCu, and trustworthiness. There is no form, mailing list, or person to ask, and there is no list of future operators. Normally, the way one becomes an operator is to be chosen by a server administrator, and display a working knowledge of IRCu, routing issues, and various other "behind the scenes" aspects of an operator's "life." The /kills, channel mode changes, etc.that are visible to users are a small part of the many duties of an IRCop. For information on just what an IRC operator does, point your browser at http://www.user-com.undernet.org/documents/operfaq.txt. This is an extremely helpful document that outlines all the various duties which an IRC operator performs on a day-to-day basis.
