We don't expose the reputation score to ordinary users (not in WHOIS, not in WHO, not via the REPUTATION command). The reason for that is twofold: first of all reputation is not a perfect measure and ordinary users may not always understand that a reputation score of 0 may mean nothing.. someone may simply have changed their IP as usual, and second (more important) is that we do like a bit of obscurity with regards to what reputation score a user has. Eg you can configure the IRCd to only increase reputation in certain cases, eg if someone is in a certain channel of a minimum size, basically we don't want to make spammers more 'wise' in that regard. And sure, security groups are exposed, and therefore you can (indirectly) deduct things. But that still has a certain ambiguity to it that i think is wise towards spammers. One can make a third party that does what you ask, but I have no plans to do this in UnrealIRCd itself, for the above reasons (and probably others that I missed). Hope you understand. |
