[IRCServices] Services flood / ignore function....

[&quot]

Actually, a services ignore feature has been noted. This command would work just as the client's version of the command by the same name. I'm not sure it it will be in 4.5.0, the "todo" on 4.5.0 is quite impressive to say the least, but that is of course for Anrew Kempe to deside ;). If it isn't in 4.5.0 I'm sure it won't be far behind ;) We had a minor expereince on ShadowFire that would have been much smaller if the command had perviously existed.

Is there any kind of flood detection function planned for Services ?........ I caught a kiddie last week who seemed to have a script that was hell bent on wasting all my CPU time by basically sending infinite commands to Services at an interval juuuuuust low enough to escape the ircd's excess flood threshold...   a network I used a year or so ago who were running austnets services code, had a builtin Services flood function whereby you'd get a warning first and then be killed if you continued to flood them... in addition, they would ignore you for 20 minutes thereafter.  
  
I was just wondering is there anything like this in development for 4.5 ? 
  
  
Btw, is there any problems with the coding list ? I subbed and confirmed ages ago yet my messages don't seem to get through......
