Suggestion for new versions

Post by thekey »

Well, I have not found a better place where to post that, so if it botters you, just move it to a better place.

I've been thinking and maybe implementing my idea would be useful for next versions of Unreal.
I've thought that:
It would be good allowing IRC Operators to set any usermode on any user, so for example if an oper activates +I usermode on someone, and it does not match anything for Unreal, this user would get a special info, for example on whois it would be appear:

User is Infected with some trojan, be careful.

Or for example, if an oper activates usermode +S on someone, on a whois it would appear:

User has his nickname Suspended.

The .conf format would be something like:

Code: Select all

usermode {
    mode <theusermode>;
    swhois <theextrainfo>;
};

usermode {
    mode "R";
    swhois "only allows QUERY messages from registered users";
};

usermode {
    mode "S";
    swhois "has his nickname Suspended.";
};
I don't know if u see this like an useless idea, but this maybe would help a very big number of netadmins :)

So, that's all. CY.

Oh, I forgot, another suggestion.. I think it would be better if someone could only activate +R mode if previously he/she had activated +r mode. I think it's absurd if someone wants only private messages from registered users when himself has not registered his nickname.
