[IRCServices] Question about possible future feature (BotServ)

[Strider]

I was thinking more along the lines of giving them chanserv functionality,
like a chanserv clone or some such. I think it should be an option to allow
regular users to add it, on our server we prefer for someone have regular
traffic to their channel before they have one of our "bots" so we don't have
500 channels that no one goes to but have bots in them. Perhaps have
chanserv check for the age of a channel and compare with usage before
allowing a regular user to add it, or just allow admins to do it.
