The main reason is because my ip gets noted down by some 'luser' then I get Denial of Service'd - I always set +x when I connect to certain IRC servers but my hidden host activates when I'm joining, so someone will get my IP. With a three second delay join it'd allow me to activate my fake host, and do the quick-quit thing and nobody would be able to get my Ip (This is just an idea though :/)

Umode +x will hide his host/ip info in order to protect him from DoS attacks (among other things) by some user in there. I would support this as long as it is an option, not always on.

It can, but this script requires that the following options be set under Alt+O >> IRC: [x] Keep channels open [ ] Rejoin channels on connect Code: On *:connect:{ .timer 1 5 rejoin } alias rejoin { var %i = 1 while $chan(%i) { if $me !ison $v1 { !.join -n $v2 $chan($v2).key } inc %i } }
