True. Maybe we should just dump some of these commands. A few (like remote
version) are required to maintain the integrity of the network. But commands
like /admin, if the users can use the website, I guess opers can too.

Sigh. Throttling isn't about clones. Throttling is about trying to protect
the irc server from having all it's CPU time used by people continously
connecting. But then again I've told you that I don't know how many times,
and you keep ignoring it. Global I:'s do help. :P

Hence why I try and mail them semi frequently, then complain very very loudly
when my mail isn't replied to ;)
