i can't see why botserv isn't possible, but if it was written it *would* cause a lot of redundant data, as the only way i can imagine this being done, it would end up contridicting chanserv a lot with mode changes etc. At one point, we were going to attempt a botserv, but instead we settled for a pared-down service called idleserv which just idles in an oper-defined list of channels to hold them open (which is generally all users want a bot for on a network with services)

>as far as i know, its not possible to create a botserv in IRCServices, as it requires services to read its write buffer to function correctly. This would create a huge drain on CPU resources, most of it being 'redundant' data. so Services probably wont support this feature.
