  34 <PRE>&gt;<i>I was playing around with an irc server and I found 2 ways to place a
  35 </I>&gt;<i>user in a kickban loop:
  36 </I>&gt;<i>1) placing +e ban exceptions using the extban type ~c:#channel, where
  37 </I>&gt;<i>it is supported, on ircds such as Unreal.
  38 </I>
  39 I can't reproduce this:
  40
  41 [Alcan/#123]
  42 *** Mode change &quot;+e ~c:#blah&quot; on channel #123 by Alcan
  43 -&gt; *ChanServ* akick #123 add blah!*@*
  44 -ChanServ- blah!*@* added to #123 autokick list.
  45 *** blah (<A HREF="http://lists.ircservices.za.net/mailman/listinfo/ircservices">achurch at hide-CC7E9766</A>) has joined channel #123
  46 *** Mode change &quot;-e ~c:#blah&quot; on channel #123 by ChanServ
  47 *** Mode change &quot;+b blah!*@*&quot; on channel #123 by ChanServ
  48 *** blah has been kicked off channel #123 by ChanServ (AKICK by Alcan)
  49
  50 [blah/#blah]
  51 *** blah (<A HREF="http://lists.ircservices.za.net/mailman/listinfo/ircservices">achurch at hide-CC7E9766</A>) has joined channel #123
  52 *** Mode change &quot;-e ~c:#blah&quot; on channel #123 by ChanServ
  53 *** Mode change &quot;+b blah!*@*&quot; on channel #123 by ChanServ
  54 *** You have been kicked off channel #123 by ChanServ (AKICK by Alcan)
  55 *** #123 Cannot join channel (+b) (Banned from channel)
  56
  57 &gt;<i>2) Joining a forbidden/suspended channel and then setting an +e
  58 </I>&gt;<i>exception quickly
  59 </I>
  60 This is unfortunately difficult to fix given the current design of
  61 Services.  I've noted it as a known issue in the documentation, but as
  62 long as your flood protection is properly set up, this won't be a problem
  63 in practice (and it gives people who think they're clever a harmless way
  64 to amuse themselves).  If your flood protection isn't properly set up, of
  65 course, you've got plenty more to worry about than join/part loops.
