BATTLENET STUFF
(Most of this stuff was retreived from battle.net. To view other stuff about battle.net, visit: http://www.battle.net/support/chat.shtml or just http://www.battle.net for the main page.)

These commands work in the battle.net chat rooms and also during the playing of the game.

Commands	What it does/Why use it
/whois [user] /whois #[number] /where [user] /where #[number] /whereis [user] /whereis #[number]	Shows the account number and location of the person. Great way to see if your friends are online.
/whoami	Shows your account number and location. Good if you just want to know your account number.
/whisper [user] /w [user] /msg [user]	Sends a private message to the user no matter where they are, even in a game. Great way to tell friends to join your game even when you are not in the same chat channel.
/squelch [user] /ignore [user]	You don't hear anything from that user again. Perfect for those annoying people!
/unsquelch [user] /unignore [user]	Lets you haer the squelched user. Good if you make up with those annoying people!
/away [text]	Displays an away message whenever someone is looking you up or whispers to you. To reverse the command, type it in again. Great way of telling people that you dont want to hear from them.
/dnd [text]	Same thing as /away except that you don't see the whispered message. If you are in an important game, just put this sign up.
/who [channel]	Displays all the users in the channel. I don't understand why anyone would use this.
/users	Displays the nmber of users currently logged onto Battle.net. I don't understand why anyone would use this.
/time	Displays the Battle.net time. Good if you don't have a watch and need to know the time quick. Also its a great way to arrange games if you play with people from all over the world. There is only one time that you must tell them.

These commands work only in the battle.net chat rooms.

Channel Commands	What it does/Why use it
/channel [channel name] /join [channel name]	Joins the channel you have selected. Good command if you are like me and are too lazy to reach for the mouse and click the channel button.
/rejoin	You will rejoin the channel. Good if you are channel operator and someone wants to see your picture.

These commands work only in the battle.net chat rooms if you are the operator.

Channel Operator Commands	What it does/Why use it
/designate [user] /designate #[number]	Tells who will be the net channel operator once you leave. Good if you don't want someone to become channel operator after you.
/resign	You will become a regular user in the channel instead of the operator. Good if you cannot handle the responsiblities.
/kick [user] /kick #[number]	Kicks a user out of the channel and they can return if they wish. Good as a warning to someone that is annoying you.
/ban [user] /ban #[number]	Kicks a user out of the channel and prevents them from returning until there is a new channel operator. Most powerful command that a channel operator pocesses. Useful for those really annoying people or if you just want to talk privately to someone.
/unban [user] /unban #[number]	Lets the banned user return. Pretty useful command i guess...
