There is a person who comes into the channel and then spoofs one of the ops nicks. Often it will be close to one of the Op's nicknames, E.G. Talia`, or even the name of an absent op or MotherCares`. Please note he uses different characters at the end of the OPs name; these include the backtick(`), a dash(-), an underscore(_) and the tilde(~). This person will then make various threats (network ban or a virus) in a private message. Mostly it is to force the person to role play with them.

All of the ops in #mothers will have the form of .users.undernet.org in their host address, E.G. Talia@Talia.users.undernet.org. If this person messages you, the easiest thing to do is to put it on ignore. If you don't know how, contact an op in the channel and one will assist you.
