I don't think so. This limits the ability for the level 9 server to decide
about what it's doing. I mean, It's kinda frustrating if you set a ban for two
days and some computer says, "well, ok, I take your authorization for level 9
but I'll modify your commands because someone had the same idea earlier"...
If you keep all bans on one host individually, high-leveled server get more
authority, which is what we want.
Example:
- server1, level 1
- server9, level 9
server1 sets a ban on some host, say, phid.ae, with a duration of 30y. Now
server9 notices spamming from host phid.ae and decides to set a ban with a
duration of 2h. With your design, we'd now have a level 9 ban with a duration
of 30y, which is not really what server9 intended.
I stick with my design: when a ban expires, the other bans on the same mask
stay intact.
In other news, I'm gonna try starting an RFC style document about our project.
Wish me luck. ;)
