The only way I'm aware of is by adding another class block and making sure that the user falls within it. Then raise the sendq/recq settings and setup an extra allow{} block so that the user is put in the right class block.

That still won't disable flood protection entirely for that user. In fact, the recvq is limited to 32KB IIRC. Currently, in order to make a user completely unaffected by the flood protection, you'd have to give him an oline...

Could this be done by means of a module?

Not that I know any C... just curious.

mm, if you just reset their flood, probably. I don't really know.

You could constantly reset the cptr->since value to 'now' (using unreal's now variable or something like time(NULL)), but it may be simpler to set some flag. Unfortunately, the only flag that'll gauruntee to do that is UMODE_OPER. I think the rest is obvious.
