See the newest version of IRC, which has been in test use for several weeks
now.
Channels can have operators who can decide many things about a channel,
For example the following flags can be set (or cleared by operator):
- channel topic settable by channel operator only
- invite-only channels (only channel operator can invite people
to a channel)
- moderated channels (only channel operator(s) can write to a channel)
- channel operator can kick people off channel
Doesn't that help a bit ?
