Why I think that you should keep the ops opped instead of following
|
||
|
|
freenode's recommendations.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
*Tired blogging, this will probably have a need for lot of fixing after I
|
||
|
|
am more awake if I ever am...*
|
||
|

|
|
Is there issue with your channel? What will people do? They will go to
|
||
|
|
some other channel to say that there is spam on your channel forgetting
|
||
|
|
to ping you about it.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Yes, of course there is `/msg chanserv access #channel list`, but who
|
||
|
|
really uses that, especially from newer users? Probably no one and if
|
||
|
|
you have larger channel with multiple ops, it requires whoising the
|
||
|
|
whole lot of you to see who is not away and has lower idle time (even if
|
||
|
|
the idletime might not mean anything if the op uses OTR and other reasons).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
And there is also the issue of having to trust services or your bots.
|
||
|
|
What if the services go down or netsplit and the same happens to your bot?
|
||
|
|
You are out of luck unless you had the ops opped in which case the outage
|
||
|
|
doesn't affect you that much at all.
