[IRCServices Coding] problems with 5.0.9

[Ali Sor]

Hello;
We have the same problem too. We are using  Unreal3.2 as ircd. But cant
reproduce it. Hub  stops but services continues. We cant connect it or
anything else after ircd come back. Services stays alone.

We are having problems also, we are running Unreal3.1.5.1 and the other day
the hub died and the services never died, just
kept running.
