With cloaking turned off, a join on IRC looks like this: *** User (~none@d5142341.example.net) has joined #test With cloaking turned on, users will see: *** User (~none@rox-2DCA3201.example.net) has joined #test The first part of the host is partially hidden or "cloaked". Other people won't see your real hostname or IP address. This security feature is useful to prevent users from flooding/attacking each other.
