===Channel operators===
A ''channel operator'' is a [[Client (computing)|client]] on an [[IRC channel]] that manages the channel.
IRC channel operators can be easily seen by the symbol or icon next to their name (varies by client implementation, commonly a "@" symbol prefix, a green circle, or a Latin letter "+o"/"o").
On most networks, an operator can:
* Kick a user.
* Ban a user.
* Give another user IRC Channel Operator Status or IRC Channel Voice Status.
* Change the IRC Channel topic while channel mode +t is set.
* Change the IRC Channel Mode locks.
