did u try watchdogs code?

as a reminder here it is
Code:
ON !*:OP:#: {
  if ($nick(#,0,o) > 4) {
    mode # -o $opnick
    notice $opnick The hosting limit has been reached. Please wait for someone to deop first.
  }
}

basically what his code does it if someone other than u is opped and the op count is greater than 4 it will deop the person who was opped ..... to increase or decrease this number simply change the on line

if ($nick(#,0,o) > 4) {

to ($nick(#,0,0) > YOUR NUMBER HERE) {

try this one and see .. it will do the trick and is a lot cleaner than that mess u have going there
