  44 &gt;<i> &gt; FloodServ - not only do floodbots flood but so do regular
  45 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; users. I believe
  46 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; this will help keep people from abusing channels when a
  47 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; channel operator is
  48 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; not there.
  49 </I>&gt;<i>
  50 </I>&gt;<i> OK I see where you're coming from now, but this is requiring Services
  51 </I>&gt;<i> to process every single line from every single channel, a not
  52 </I>&gt;<i> insignificant load, and probably unreasonable for nets greater than
  53 </I>&gt;<i> about 500 to 1000 users. Most (I'm tempted to say all ;) decent ircds
  54 </I>&gt;<i> have flood protection built in. It's much more efficient to check it
  55 </I>&gt;<i> at the ircd end than at the services end. It's also fallible - if
  56 </I>&gt;<i> services is split, you've lost all protection.
  57 </I>&gt;<i>
  58 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; RoutingServ - mosty ircd's will autoconnect disconnected
  59 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; servers but some
  60 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; won't. I also like the idea of services being able to
  61 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; re-rout servers if the
  62 </I>&gt;<i> &gt; connection to a hub becomes laggy.
  63 </I>&gt;<i>
  64 </I>&gt;<i> Also an advantage for smaller nets where you don't have a global oper
  65 </I>&gt;<i> on hand all the time I suppose. I'm slowly warming to the idea :).
