Lock = passworded channel?
That is a good idea!
I am sure that the next suggestion are mentioned before:
It would be nice if general TS server users can make channels (not only server admins). Just like at IRC.
The fist who joins a channel can "register" the channel by entering new admin password.
But if it is not registered it will disapear if there is no people in. So the registering of a channel is an option, not required.
To keep new channel list short as possible it is good to have somekind delay before make a channel absolutely static.
For example if admin have not loged on in the newly maked channel in three (3) days it will be automatically unregistered.
So if I host a TS server it will be free for all...
Here comes new idea:
The server should have at least 2 modes:
1) Privat (i.e only server admin can make new channels)
2) FFA (Free For All - all users can make new channels and be an operator there).
.... and nick registering would be good option here.
Thank you for your attention
