Number 1)
It's possibile require Authmail for channel register?

Answer: Whats the point? ppl already have to auth for their nicknames.. and 
if u know their email address is valid from that.. y do u need mail auth for 
a channel?

Number 2)
It's possibile nickserv countdown before changing nick?

Answer: Whats the point? one 60 second warning should be enough. Unless u 
wanna deal with all your users complaining about spam from services, if the 
message "You have 60seconds to change your nickname" isnt enough, then they 
might as well have their nicknames changed!

Number 3)
It's possibile add this nickname information?

Answer: Whats the point? and besides, a feature close to this one already 
exists.. (/ns help set info) the user can set any information they want 
other ppl to see there.



As you can see.. i have come up with a commom question for you.. "Whats the 
point?" these features seem pointless, and will not only waste bandwidth, 
but cause un-neseccery SPAM, and i can tell u from several years experiance, 
users dont want that.


Have a nice Day.
