Is it somehow possible to disable the flood protection / fakelage?

Because now, when connected on a znc, there will always be a so-called "fakelag" / flood protection when you send multiple lines at once.

You can disable flood protection through the webadmin under the network preferences.

Be careful when using this, because it will get you into excess-flood kill-loops if you have znc joining the channels (e.g. via chansaver or manually added) on startup.
You should only do this if you intent not to save channels in znc and instead have your client to rejoin them in case znc reconnects.

When I disable it and I send multiple lines at once, there is still a delay between every line. Only the 4 first lines are at once.
I already disabled the flood protection of my IRC client itself.
I have znc version 1.0

@Kajvdh: Yeah, changes to that settings are only applied after a reconnect. Yeah, can be considered a bug. No, I don't feel like fixing this.

@Nothing4You: By itself, ZNC only joins MaxJoins channels at once. The intention here is not to join all your 500 channels at once.
