There is a method -- but you have to edit the code to do it.  Most networks
work the other way round, users can join any channels except a few that are
barred by operators.  You can invert this behaviour to get what you want --
so only barred channels can be joined.

You will need to "resv" the channels you want to ban, and then in
modules/m_join.c, change the if(find_channel_resv(name) ...) to
if(!find_channel_resv(name) ...)

More information on resv is available via /quote help resv
