I gave that guy exact answers and/or solutions to the three problems stated by him above, read my posts (BTW, those particular demands, however weird they might be, won't be fulfilled by unbinding built-in bindings, as per egghead's suggestion)
Your suggestion is to make RAW bindings and then process it. That is about one of the the last things you should do if you want to "disable all default event responses" which was the topic of this thread.
For your information, the request for disabling eggdrop's default responses is not that "weird".
the guy wanted to disable massdeop protection - maybe you can point out another solution for that, besides intercepting raw mode and process it your own way? in the context of what you were saying, patches don't count

On some servers you dont need mass deop protection. On my own IRCd i have no need for this function as my eggdrops cannot be deoped as the server wont allow them to be. Also some IRCd's running services such as chanserv also wont allow massdeops if setup correctly. The mass deop feature is only really usefull on on the big networks such as IRCNet and EFNet which dont support services.
From what i have seen in my years on the net more and more people are turning to smaller networks and abandoning the major ones for these protections offered by services. and depreciating a lot of eggdrops built in protections.

so if you were a farmer, you'd take the bumpers off your pickup truck just because you live in the middle of nowhere, not likely to bump into anything?
eggdrop's massdeop protection would be a nuisance to you only if you run a channel where everyone is an op and most people run lame scripts or have fun massdeoping others
the ircd itself and channel services are irrelevant, eggdrop doesn't interfere with those

Whats this all aboot? Maybe he does have a lot of ops and massdeops occur frequently becuase its Fun todo so. What fun would cow tipping be withoot bumpers?? IRC is all about having fun something which you seem to know little aboot.

In my opinion the above is uncalled for (the insinuated slur of a persons country of origin)! I could sit here all day and have an absolute field day on the misuse of the English language but I don't because the whole purpose of these forums is to help, not to poke fun at people because of where they come from.

I have to agree with demond. Eggdrop's main function is channel/user protection. It's highly configurable via the configuration settings and can all be disabled.
Exlax has his/her reasons for wanting to disable some features of eggdrop in their own way and one has to respect that no matter how "weird" it may appear.

You are right Alchera it was uncalled for and i appologise for that. Peoples opinions on this forum should be respected and not dismissed as stupidity tho that is what got my back up in this perticular case.
