Say what? /disconnect is a "brutal quit" - client says it's going to quit and just disconnects. You must be thinking of /quit (which in some clients just sends the quit and waits for disconnect). Think of it like a phone conversation: you could say "Bye" and wait for the other end to hang up (standard /quit), say "Bye" and then hang up (the "brutal quit"), or just hang up. Since "hanging up" is at the TCP/IP level, unreal can't prevent the client from doing so at all, especially since there are many software ways as well as hardware to end the connection without the ircd having a say: SIGKILL/force quit the client (software), shutdown the computer (mix software/hardware), unplug computer (hardware) from either network or power, remove network adapter (if hotpluggable such as USB / pcimcia / cardbus / etc, and obviously hardware), turn off the router/modem, (dialup only:) pick up the phone and push random tones into the connection, making the modem go ZOMGWTF *hangup* (hardware, with a dab of software as the modem firmware is what goes ZOMGWTF). ircd-level shun simply cannot prevent disconnecting. at all. /quit might not work, but I doubt it. If the "disconnect" button doesn't work, then it is your client that's broken. |

What client are you using? (version of it too) There was one mIRC version which did a "soft disconnect", where it waited for the server to close the connection. That feature was taken back out in the next version. EDIT: And I hope you're not really running 3.2-beta5 |
