Levels of Commands

Not everyone can issue all commands. There are several commands which can be issued by anyone, but most are restricted to people who have been registered with the bot. Part of that registration is the assignment of an access level to the user, and that is what determines which commands the user has access to.

Associated with each user are a number of flags; each access level includes certain of these flags, by default.

The varioius access levels are listed below, along with which flags they normally have. Below that, are listed the flags, and what each means.
