The only thing I would like to see added is the gag command set up with a drop down to select minutes like the ban box. Often you can keep a player instead of kicking them and get a point across at the same time with a short gag. I like it not doing a writeid because my admins know they have to give me a wonid, nick and reason if they want a perm ban, that is a good thing in general. There are probably a few more adminmod commands I could make use of like vsay or psay but where does it end, I imagine some would like to see it a full blown php version of hlgui.
