No, I didn't miss anything. If you want a hidden host, you will have to use cservice. As it now stands, people can't even get a user name from cservice to become channel ops as the site is continually DoSed and out of service. People with free Internet accounts and banned ISP's also cannot use cservice. I'd hate to see a two tiered user schema on Undernet, those who cservice allows to have a hidden host and those that cservice decides will become the DoS targets of others. For hidden hosts to become the norm in the spirit of IRC, the service should be automated and not left to a select committee to decide each user's fate. stoney`
