If a user has the chmode +a or +q, the channel list of his WhoIs shows some "strange" prefixes, that is ^ (for +a) and * (for +q). Besides there are others "strange prefixes" like ? and !, which appear to IRCops only. The first appears when the channel is secret or private, the second when the user has the umode +p (that hide the channel list in the whois to normal users). Can be also a combination of these prefixes, for exampe if a user has the chmode +q in the channel #mIRC, and the same channel is +s and moreover the user has the umode +p, in his Whois, an IRCop, will see ?!*#mIRC. The "bug" is that if I doubleclick on a channel with these prefixes, I won't join it... there's a solution to this problem? bye Dracoo

I haven't used the unrealircd prefixes here as I am not sure of them. I'm not certain if the above works well with clients other than mIRC. The above may have undesirable effects on NAMES and nickname hotlinking however (usually if a flag conflicts), which could explain why it is yet to be implemented. Hope that helps
