[IRCServices] Ok, I think that I have checked all other areas first. Why the !@#$ does chanserv keep re-opping and re-voic

     Meaning your one channel?  When I first implemented this feature most
people appreciated it.  Is there a general opinion on whether this behavior
should change?  Incidentally, I have never heard of this "supposed to remove
their ops and voice" business; don't assume your channel policies apply to
everyone else.

     *BZZZT* RTFM and try again.

-> *ChanServ* help set secureops
-ChanServ- Syntax: SET channel SECUREOPS {ON | OFF}
-ChanServ-
-ChanServ- Enables or disables the secure ops option for a channel.
-ChanServ- When secure ops is set, users who are not on the userlist
-ChanServ- will not be allowed chanop status.

Incidentally, the command you are looking for is "help levels desc".

     Does anyone else have an opinion on this?
