It's late, i'm tired, and probably missed this somewhere in the code, confs, and tcls, but is there a way to change the banmask on the .kickban NICK so i dont have to .kickban @NICK? i always forget the @, and would just like to change the plain one to a normal hostmask, instead of a ident/isp mask.

As stated in many posts around the forum, there is no config setting thats effects what a ban mask will look like.

.kickban is one of the rare commands that provides a way to change nit, and it must be done at useage time.

The idea behind a changable banmask was being looked into for 1.7, but it will not find it's way into the 1.6 versions, as only bug fixes are made.

Just to warn you. 1.7 is the development name (just the same as 1.5 was the development name for the 1.6 bots).

1.7 is not likely to be available for a very very long time.

Work on clearing up the code has not even completed yet, then the changes have to be made to area being removed. Then more clearing up.

Once this long development cycle is complete, it goes into bug testing. And trust me, the amount of changes taking place on 1.7, this will take even longer.

HMM - might be.

I have made several sugestions about this on the development mailing list. And so have many others.
