Well, if you had gone into more detail and RTFM on how to report segfaults, then maybe you would have been helpped. As Andy said "RTFM (FAQ Z.3)". Just saying 'It Crashed' is stupid. Not even telling us HOW it crashed, apart from a log entry saying 'Services is crashing now'.

If you cant read the manual, then thats your problem. Good luck with Anope. Have a Nice day, and please leave us alone.
