Chat: CREATE Command Does Not Accept Capital Letters for Modes

ID: Q198819

The information in this article applies to:

SYMPTOMS

Chat clients in IRCX mode will receive an error when creating a channel using a capital letter for the mode.

For example, if you type:

CREATE #channel L 50

The Microsoft Exchange Chat Service will respond with the following:

Server 472 nick L :is unknown mode char to me

The CREATE command accepts only lower case letters for the mode.

To work around this problem, use lower case letters when typing the CREATE command. For example:

CREATE #channel l 50

This behavior is by design, the MODE and CREATE commands accept only lower case letters.
