you're wrong, this is how it should work. so neither a bug nor a feature.

This is rfc1459 quote of 4.2.5 "Names message":

> Command: NAMES
> Parameters: [< channel >{,< channel >}]
[skip]
> If no < channel > parameter is given, a list of all channels and their
> occupants is returned. At the end of this list, a list of users who
> are visible but either not on any channel or not on a visible channel
> are listed as being on `channel' "*".

So, the question is still opened...

Well, then we also get umode +i into the play. Frankly, i think the feature is a bit useless for daily use - anything using this would get flooded into death, and services are much better off handling it..

Yeah, that's old stuff, that shouldn't be done.

Just tested on ircnet and efnet, it gives a huge list which floods you off.

Then tried on dalnet (bahamut), they just only returned * End of /NAMES list, same as us.

Have not tried others, don't care either ;p
