could you guys disable anymore stuff so it is a pain in the a** to IRC. i suppose it is a pain in the a** to be ddos'd, but to disable the /stats and /link or /map so you cannot find an ircop or tell what servers are split or to get on the same server as someone else is ridiculous. this information could/should be available in a manner that doesnt jeopardize your security. when people come into #irchelp and whine about wanting to hide everything so someone won't come to their houses and visit them i tell them to type: /exit, maybe the people running the servers should just give it up and type /exit or what ever ircu/d requires. that is my piece about issue, right or wrong. next, get rid of usermode +i. if there where no usermode +i, there'd be lot less nuking etc. cause users wouldn't be hidden. if the abused don't like being harassed there is /ignore. and if you don't like the exposure because there is no usermode +i, there is /exit. i will not use this forum for constructive criticism again. i realize it is for admins, etc. but it would be interesting to watch this thread being discussed by those in the know. road^bump
