  34 <PRE>&gt;&gt;<i> Frankly, logonnews is useless, and most of my users and opers
  35 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> agree.  It scrolls off too fast.  Ideally, it shoudl have a
  36 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> delay to prevent it being lost in the system notices on
  37 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> connection.  Maybe a 10 second delay beforee it flashes by,
  38 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> to give the user time to connect, etc, and then they might
  39 </I>&gt;&gt;<i> actually SEE it.
  40 </I>&gt;<i>
  41 </I>&gt;<i> That is hardly a services issue. The IRCd would be the place to add
  42 </I>&gt;<i> false delays into the login process.
  43 </I>&gt;<i>
  44 </I>&gt;<i> I doubt users would welcome having a connection to the network paused
  45 </I>&gt;<i> for such a reason.

  47 I think he's suggesting introducing a pause before services sends the
  48 notice, so that a user can have all their registration and channel joining
  49 out of the way, so that it appears at the bottom of a window full of
  50 rubbish. Which doesn't sound like such a bad idea.
