I'd go with the former. if it generates too much kicks in the main chat, you can always decide to hide it. but I guess you'd like to see the effects of your bot, I would.

curUser.Disconnect and then move 'em to temp/perm-ban?
nice touch.. I'd do that if the chat gets flooded yes. but I hope for your hubs sake that that's not the case ;)

I'm not having too much trouble with it so far, though I do have one question for you guys. How should I deal with kicking offenders?

I would make a "kickbot", that you can just privmsg "listen" to and it will tell all kicks to you in private. Then you just tell him "shut up" when you dont want them anymore.

This way, you (and any op or user thats interested) can see kicks to see that the bot isnt going insane.

try this

If chkVerbose.Value = vbChecked Then
wskHubConnection.SendData "<" + txtUserName.Text + "> I am " + "kicking " + Usr + " " + Reason + "|"
DoEvents
DoEvents
DoEvents
DoEvents
wskHubConnection.SendData "$To: " + Usr + " From: " + txtUserName.Text + " $<" + txtUserName.Text + "> You are being kicked " + Reason + "|"
Else
wskHubConnection.SendData "$To: " + Usr + " From: " + txtUserName.Text + " $<" + txtUserName.Text + "> You are being kicked " + Reason + "!|"
End If
DoEvents
DoEvents
DoEvents
DoEvents
wskHubConnection.SendData "$Kick " + Usr + "|"

the DoEvents are required otherwise the useris kicked too quickly without recieving the PM

make a good client or none at all, i'm getting tired of getting kicked by autokicks-bots that have been poorly written.....

they mostly do.. "oooh.. i don't recognice this guy and my logic is poorly written so... lets kick him and acuse him of beeing a cheater."

also you might want to add
If curUser.bAssHole then
wskHubConnection.SendData "<" + txtUserName.Text + "> !ban " + curUser.IP + "|"
End If
hehehehe

The only problem is, that Paradox isn't writing her client in VB =)
