     Did you use the RAW command?  If so, read the documentation on the
RAW command.  Then read it again.  Notice the part that says "This
command... can wreak havoc on a network if used improperly"?  There's
your answer.

     Put another way, Services does absolutely no interpretation of RAW
commands (nor is there any reason it should), so it has no way of
knowing you sent ChanServ into a channel.
