[IRCServices Coding] Teams: Idea

Hi,

A few nice features, but too complex imho.

ircservices has 3 permission levels - oper, admin, super user. For us this
is perfect. We've modified how ircservices deals with each level too. For
example, all admins are automatically given channel founder access to any
registered channel.

One feature that stood out below was the ability to ban based on gecos. I'd
like to see a feature like this tied together with regex matching (gecos and
regular nick!ident at host matched together).

Something to manage GZLINEs would be nifty too (have a feeling I saw this in
version 5, can't remember now).

While I'm ranting about new features, the ability to search the akill db
by reason would be handy too. Add to that the ability to list akills grouped
by reason would also be cool.

-OperServ- There are 427 host masks on the AKILL list.

This is probably small by many standards and even it can be a pain to wade
through. :)


Regards,
Aragon

> Hello,
> 
> Here is an idea for you that was going to be used on a version of Services called  VorteX, but they lost their financial support so stopped programming it, so we are stuck with the bits and pieces, but the operserv help thing works, and this is an example of what it looks like.
> 
> You see, they used teams for access instead of levels like Services Op and Services Admin. Other services I liked had Help Op, Services Op, Services Admin and Services Root Admin and one Services Master.
> 
> This version I like, however, uses teams: Help Team, IRC Operators, K-Line Team, Closers Team, Coding Team, and Executive Board. (Coding Team had access to all teams automatically), and users can be assigned more than one team, and each team has a leader.
