Chanserv doesn't reset. I don't know the technicals, but only the people who know the passwords can get various levels of access (half Op, Op, Admin, Owner) and Usher has the top pass. As I said, this isn't really a problem from my perspective. It has fixed a number of problems chat was having with spam.

What happens if usher dies with the keys?

I'm pretty sure there's a file m7 can just delete if he wants to undo it.

Yes, it's possible to change

Please undo it. We don't need a malevolent overlord in the chat.

No they don't have the top pass, I'm pretty certain. They likely just have +o operator status for the channel because they were there when it did the daily reset. If you can show me they have the top pass then that would mean our chat has been completely hacked, but I'm pretty sure it has not been hacked

Owner is designated with a ~ in front of their name in chat and in the user list it clearly designates him as owner.

It wasn't hacked, Ed was spamming the shit out of chat, we were going through the documentation to find something to stop him. Usher found out how to register as owner of those two channels, I found flood control, Weegs figured out the weird syntax. Now flood control is on by default btw, but also no Op without a person with a password.

This was a fix to a problem, and Usher isn't abusing it. Who cares.

I am glad it exists as a solution to a problem. D3rr mostly manages the chat. I will contact him. We still have a higher level of control over chat than that so we can cut this out at any time. Thanks for the info.

Just keeping the place Ed-free. :)

He IS abusing it, he has fits of rage and depression or whatever, he is mentally unstable, he bans and kicks on a whim. He hasn't done it to YOU maybe but it certainly does interfere with good conversation.
