They do, after 365 days of inactivity.
Nicks expire after 365 days of inactivity. However, if a nick has not been used for a while, we might to decide to drop it earlier based on various non-disclosed factors. Just join #hackint and ask. Note that nicks will never be dropped if unused for 12 weeks or less.
Just join #hackint and talk to us there.
Yes, you can. If you're identified with NickServ, do the following:

There are two possibilities.
-
You can either register the channel and remove the autoop (-O) flag from every user. This way, however, some users will still have more control over the channel than others, namely the ones on the channel's access list.
-
Instead of registering the channel, you can remove your chanop flag immediately after joining the channel. You will never be able to regain chanop status unless you get everyone in the channel to leave.
If you do not immediately deop yourself in the channel, ChanFix will take note of the fact and automatically reop some people if the channel becomes opless. You cannot turn a channel with chanops into an opless channel, unless you register it with ChanServ.
