Re: IRCD Query Delay

You could just start the ircd with "-p off" to disable the penalty system.
For more information about penalty read:
http://www.irc.org/tech_docs/ircnet/faq.html#misc-3
(The ircd starts with "strict protection" - BOOT_PROT|BOOT_STRICTPROT by 
default).

However that will also disable nick and channel delay and will cause
trouble on a network (nick collisions, channel takeovers, etc).
(But it could be quite useful for a standalone server.)

Actually when protection on the other servers is strict they disallow you
to link your server with a "lower protection" anyways.

Else you can add your (IsAnOper(cptr) or something) checks in
common/parse.c (that will be BOFH and will just allow
opers to flood), remove MSG_LAG (free speech for all) or similar.

Maybe also consider increasing the CLIENT_FLOOD #define in config.h.
