34 <PRE>Ohhh excuse my ignorance...I've had some trouble with programming so my
35 brain is fried. Next time I will try to read more thoroughly before
36 responding so quickly, heh.

50 &gt;<i> I think that what Adam was referring to is something similar to how you
51 </I>can
52 &gt;<i> link nicknames together so that you can attain the privileges that have
53 </I>been
54 &gt;<i> attached to any of them through any in the linkage set. However this
55 </I>would
56 &gt;<i> be different in that it would be limited to that session instead of a
57 </I>&gt;<i> permanent linkage. Or more simply put, identify to nickserv as being a
58 </I>user
59 &gt;<i> without actually holding that nickname. In fact the second description is
60 </I>&gt;<i> better because it doesn't necessarily mean that the nickname your using
61 </I>&gt;<i> needs to be registered or otherwise documented anywhere else within
62 </I>&gt;<i> services. Quite a handy method for escaping private message floods or
63 </I>just
64 &gt;<i> anyone who wants to talk with you.
65 </I>&gt;<i>
66 </I>&gt;<i> Though there would then be issues with memoserv. Perhaps modifying the
67 </I>&gt;<i> memoserv format (or allowing only one of two formats) to be used which
68 </I>would
69 &gt;<i> include a 'from' token as well as a to token. The memoserv feature alone
70 </I>&gt;<i> would be a good idea as it could be VERY useful to send messages from a
71 </I>&gt;<i> nickname without necessarily being that nickname, only linked to it.
72 </I>&gt;<i>
73 </I>&gt;<i> (For example if a user has a robot programmed to do something and they
74 </I>trust
75 &gt;<i> it; the bot could be linked to their nickname and send messages through
76 </I>that
77 &gt;<i> nickname. Or another example which would be more common; the user has
78 </I>many
79 &gt;<i> nicknames and is using one in one channel when they receive a memo.
80 </I>Without
81 &gt;<i> having to change their name to respond they could use the more familiar
82 </I>&gt;<i> nickname to send a reply back.)
83 </I>&gt;<i>
84 </I>&gt;<i> A second thought occurs though that services may only keep track of
85 </I>&gt;<i> registered names and otherwise operate in a way that would hinder the
86 </I>first
87 &gt;<i> idea. I don't know enough C/C++ to even think of reading the source to
88 </I>know
89 &gt;<i> for sure, but just the concept design seems like this might be difficult
90 </I>to
91 &gt;<i> pull off.

95 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; This is something that has to be scripted into your client or programmed
96 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; into the ircd. This has nothing to do with services. UnrealIRCd comes
97 </I>with
98 &gt;<i> &gt; this features, and my irc script, well the one i use to use also had a
99 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; feature that redirected /nickserv to /msg nickserv. These 2 methods are
100 </I>&gt;<i> very
101 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; different however.

107 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; Hey, i know its slightly off topic.. but why cant i use /nickserv
108 </I>&gt;<i> identify
109 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; &lt;nick&gt; &lt;password&gt;
110 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt;
111 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; &gt; i think this is a very usefull feature and should be included. :-)
