He could of course be referring to the MOTD that is displayed to clients on connect.

In this case, you can "disable" it by creating a blank file called ircd.smotd in the Unreal directory. Of course, this file is normally for displaying the most essential information out of the normal MOTD without flooding clients off with a 3KB file or something like that.

unreal doesn't read empty files. So creating ircd.smotd won't work.
