we have a dichotomy with gving a Welcome message and generating spam as sewi correctly highlights.

not providing Welcome message for op's is easy

as for rest, well we could abuse the HOP (half-op status) for known members, similarly to the current trust for ops.

it would just mean emulating the trust system.

But, there's always a but, would this be an abuse of the IRC HOP feature, or can we do what we want with it?

I have tweaked bot code

r19144

now op's will not receive a welcome message on join, only on /nick change to a trusted nickname

this will most likely happen when an op joins via a web interface then issues a /nick

ok

I have now sent the /nick message privately, they can change nick in private chat also ;)

as for those who do not want the Welcome message, there is now an experimental status using hop, ie hop no welcome
