+\fBScrubCTCP\fR (boolean)
+If set to true, ngIRCd will silently drop all CTCP requests sent to it from
+both clients and servers. It will also not forward CTCP requests to any
+other servers. CTCP requests can be used to query user clients about which
+software they are using and which versions said softare is. CTCP can also be
+used to reveal clients IP numbers. ACTION CTCP requests are not blocked,
+this means that /me commands will not be dropped, but please note that
+blocking CTCP will disable file sharing between users!
