[REQUEST] Hide channel user status

Post by SpaceDoG »

What I'm looking for is already a channel mode on other IRCd's and I wouldn't mind seeing it on Unreal. The basic concept channel mode is basically to limit those without power of not seeing those in power. IE a normal user can't see who is +vhoaq but a +v can see who is +v and a +o can see +vho but not +a or +q. I know it sounds kind of retarded but sometimes it has it's uses and my users have requested so I just thought I would see if someone is up to the task of writing such a module.

well, think about the amount of ways someone can discover who has vhoaq in the room?

/who /whois /names
any /mode change affecting a user
/mode #channel a
/mode #channel q

and possibly more.. i wouldnt want to join a channel to find people kicking or banning without ops or talking with +m on, pretty unfair and misleading?

also, when they implented namesx the point was to stop desyncs and to make it so u can see WHO has which modes in the room :)

Well the actual module will make it so that users that aren't at the appropriate level to see the change would see it as * irc.server.addr sets mode +whatever on #channel. They wouldn't actually see who did it and the /who stuff would hide who is/isn't an op in the room.
