The IRC protocol doesn't provide any commands for this. Certain programs that use the protocol have ignore features while others don't.
A bit of extra info, you can also do /ignore user@host or /ignore *@host which is useful if people change nicks
Try
/ignore (botname) chan
or
/ignore (botname) all
The first ignores in channel, the second says in all situations.
/ignore -c user*!@*
For Example:
/ignore -c XDCCBOT*!@*
will ignore all users with XDCCBOT prefix. I.e. XDCCBOT1234@anyhost.com
The -c
flag is to ignore messages from user sent to the Channel only, and you will still be able to recieve CTCP/DCC replies etc.
