The command you're thinking of looks like this for Hybrid-based networks:

NICK <nickname> 1 0 <+usermodes> <username> <hostname> services.gay.net 0 :<realname>

or for dreamforge-based ircds, like Unreal and Cyclone:

NICK <nickname> 1 0 <username> <hostname> services.gay.net 0 :<realname>

I'm sure you've heard the warnings, but extensive use of this will most likely result in you having to restart services.
