-AKILL is a feature of IRC services that will distribute a K:Line to all the other servers in the network. A K:Line is a server ban for your specific IP address. This means if you are AKILLed then you're banned from every other server. This is done to protect the network from spambots, flooders, and continually disruptive elements.
