When theres a netsplit some of the servers have different information when the net rejoins, how does it resolve?
All channel modes are rebroadcasted to the respective sides of the network and either: NO TimeStamp) all modes passed are valid or TimeStamp) only the correctly stamped modes are valid Oper mode message in the whois information (blah is an IRC operator) propagate The names of the channels you are on propagate Away messages do not (except on DALnet) Idle times do not Channel topics do not (except on DALnet) A note on +k (key) propagation. Dueling keys do not propagate. If the channel has one key and during a split, someone creates another key, when the net rejoins half the net will have one key and the other half will have the other. This will continue until one person sets a key on the channel overriding both existing keys. (No, I have never personally tested to see how many keys I could stack on a channel.
