Ban version module idea

Post by Stealth »

I think a module to ban client versions per channel would be a great thing to have. It would use an extended bantype, and save information from the version check Unreal does with the ban version block. When a client attempts to join the channel, it checks the version the client sent on connect against the ban list, then allows/denies the client to join.

Example:
+b ~v:*mIRC* Would ban all mIRC users from the channel
+be ~v:* ~v:*mIRC* Only people using mIRC would be able to join the channel

This would be great for channels made for a specific client (MSChat), as well as to keep unwanted clients out (XDCC Catchers)
