Hi

It's possible that users with access to the SAY command
(possible other commands, too, not checked yet) will
excess flood the dancer.
Messages to the clients will be put i the message queue
where the dancer will prevent itself from being excess
flooded. But messages to the channel sent with the SAY
command are sent immideately to the server, without
flood check.
So if a user fills up the message queue to keep dancer
busy sending messages to the server and sends enough
SAY commands the dancer will be kicked off by the server.

It was tested on 2004-05-09 with the latest CVS checkout.
