Summary	0001771: K:Line Priority Levels
Description	I think that it'd be beneficial to be able to specify priority levels for bans/exceptions. Here's a good example: 1) We want to require users to either use the java client or a special script. So, we ban @ with a priority of 1. 2) We create an exception for our script (ie S-@) and java and give it a priority of 2. 3) When we want to ban a user from the network, we issue the /kline command and use a priority of 3 to override the exception. Now, say @.aol.com can't connect at all - even though they may match the lower priority exception.
Additional Information	Obviously, this introduces the problem of dynamic K:lines being used to override exceptions which were intended to protect admins. The solution to this problem would be to add something in the set block so that dynamic K:lines can't have a priority higher than x. That way, as long as exceptions for admins are higher than x, IRCops can't K:line them.

~~codemastr~~ 2004-04-30 23:18 reporter ~0005965	This is what allow blocks are for. allow { ... hostname java@; ip java@; ... }; allow { ... hostname S-@; ip S-@; ... }; Then you just /kline like normal.
