Why do I receive "Cannot send to channel"?
There may be several reasons for this:
- The channel may be moderated (channel mode +m) and you are not voiced/opped.
- You may be attempting to send coded text (bold/colour/reverse/underline) to a channel with channel mode +c set.
- You may be attempting to CTCP a channel which has channel mode +C set.
- You may be attempting to send a channel wide notice, and channel mode +N is set.
- You may be banned on the channel and you don't have voice/op status.
- You may not even be on the channel.
