    It was found some time ago that few of IRCnet's ircd's 
    with +topic module can be rebooted by simply 
    
    doing /quote TOPIC !etC (or-whatever !channel)
    
    This has been already mass-abused by 'EvIL MiRkhAx0rZ' 
    
    and servers have been patched now... so time for it to go public since there is virtually no more threat left
