  34 <PRE>&gt;&gt;<i>If this feature is enabled, a rogue user could suspend anyone's nick - even
  35 </I>&gt;&gt;<i>the services roots'. surely this is a bit of a problem? Comments?
  36 </I>&gt;<i>
  37 </I>&gt;<i>     Hm, this is a good point.  Suggestions (other than the obvious &quot;don't
  38 </I>&gt;<i>automatically suspend nicks&quot;)?
  39 </I>
  40 How about a short-term AKILL after the second &quot;too many passwords&quot; kill?
  41 This works for KILLCLONES and would be a nice workaround.  Suspending the
  42 nick affects innocent users, an AKILL usually doesn't.
