I am wondering if there is a way to hide the 'blalbal has joins the #channel' messages for people joining and leaving. There are so many of them. I am using the IRC client Xchat.

It wasn't permanent for me. Following these steps, if you type /set irc_conf_mode on and then /gui apply, in the text field where you normally type messages and commands, and join/part messages will be disabled for all channels (I don't know how to do this selectively, though). – Georges Dupéron Jun 2 '15 at 8:23

@GeorgesDupéron you should definitely post this as an answer as it is an even better solution, as it allows do it all by one command (well two, but still) – Paulius Šukys May 15 '16 at 6:02

Another alternative to hide join/part messages for all channels is to type a couple of commands (in the text field where you normally enter messages):

/set irc_conf_mode on
/gui apply

I don't know how to use it selectively on only some channels, though.
