Hi all, This feature is intended to let us run network-wide events where people may ask questions during the events without "disturbing" the event. When a channel is in auditorium mode (+A'ed), the following applies to users who are not opped or voiced: 1) The user list of the channel is hidden, they can only see ops/voiced on the channel (with /names). 2) When the channel is not moderated (+m'ed), messages that are sent to the channel are being relayed to #channel-relay. 3) Joins are hidden. 3) Parts are hidden. 4) Nick changes are hidden. 5) Quits are hidden. 6) /who +c is hidden. 7) Mode changes are hidden (with the exception of +o/-o/+v/-v which makes the opped/voiced appear to join/part as needed). Opped and voiced users can still see the send messages to the channel, see channel user list, mode changes, etc. This feature (channel mode) is currently can only be set by u:lined servers (services). It may be opened to all users in the future but it will probably be limited to channel managers/founders as it isn't a mode that needs to be changed on the fly. Do you think this feature will be good for other usages? do you feel like it should be opened for everyone? do you have any other comments/questions? feel free to share. -Kobi.
