because I would have wasted more time searching for scripts that feature what I need (specific commands) than I actually wasted writing that 20-line Tcl cloner

demond, awesome work. I've a question to change the bantype, or change "reason" via partyline? or repeating rate etc.. or we have to change in the script?

thanks

no, the whole idea is that you don't edit the script at all, any configuration change is done via .chanset:

demond · Posted: Wed Sep 07, 2005 10:52 pm Post subject:

and another important thing:

you probably have already noticed that, but all protections are off by default; you need to explicitly .chanset #chan +x:repeat (or x:spam, or x:lame, or whatever; note however that default -x:flood doesn't mean the bot won't punish flood, it means it will punish flood using its built-in protection, not script's protection)

also, "kick" and "deop" floods (bind FLUD) are not handled by the script, they're simply passed to eggdrop to handle further with its default built-in protection (you can't have effective deop/kick protection by a script anyway); basically, the script ignores any offense done by chanops or +o/+f bot user (global or for that channel)

Thank you demond, it works great.
I was testing/playing around with repeat, flood thing, it works like a champ. except i've noticed one thing

if you set -> .chanset #name x:flood:punish w it works fine, it sends pvt warning msg.

but when you change -> .chanset #name x:flood:punish w:k then it kicks fine but doesn't give warning in pvt.

and when you change -> .chanset #name x:flood:punish w:k:b then it kicks, bans fine but no pvt warning msg

and same is true in repeat process.

Thanks

hmm I have tested extensively but haven't noticed such erratic behaviour

you have probably changed punish set in-between offenses (offense records expire by default after 12 hours)

you can play with offense records directly via .tcl, e.g. to clear offenses array you do:

well i've used 3,4 different clones to play around..

Could you pls show me some example so i know how to use .tcl to play with offense records.? i mean i know .tcl stuff but how do i use with offense record?

Thanks

OK, Thank you.

I've cleared the offense record using .tcl unset ::xchannel::offenses so everything is fresh and i've added another channel for testing

and here is the settings:

but it is supposed to do exactly that Wink

w:k:b means:

on 1st offense of the some type, warn only
on 2nd offense of the same type, kick only
on 3rd and more offenses of the same type, ban+kick (no warning)

logical, isn't it?

w:w:k:k:b would mean: 1st warn, 2nd warn again, 3rd kick, 4th kick again, 5th and more - ban(+kick)

oh ic, you are right, that makes sense, sorry i thought with this setting w:k it will always warn/kick both...next time i'll keep your document/explanation next to me heh..

So far everything works nicely.

thnaks again, i'll keep checking your site for the latest upgrades and will continue testing the script to give you feedback.

Hi demond:

*FYI*
Tcl error [::xchannel::mass]: can't read "maxr": no such variable

Thanks

Okay let's roll out this thing, here's 1.0 (surprisingly, it turns out to be quite compact for the features supported):

demond · Posted: Sat Sep 10, 2005 10:32 pm Post subject:

as always, feedback is much appreciated; I did my best to test this thing, including mass flood by vhost drones but, without a doubt, there's much left to be done

you can also download current version of this script from the usual source, click *HERE*

Hi demond, Thank you for an excellant modular script, great great work.

i was playing with the scripts so i can give you some feedback so we can improve this wonderfull script.

1: i still see this error -> Tcl error [::xchannel::mass]: can't read "maxr": no such variable
2: color routine: it triggered even we use just one color character.. i think we should count the lines?
2: spam routine: if i am on #A, and if i type xyz is join #A, it triggers, may be it should ignore if we type the channel we are on. and may be we can have some exception list , like sometime ppl say ok join #nohack to remove the virus etc. or ppl say visit www.cservice.orf or www.egghelp.org..

3: bad word : we can define the file name via .chanset but we cann't add/delete the bad words using partryline? i've define the badwords file using .chanset but i don't see in the bot's dir, so i can add the words..

4:caps:
i've changed percent to 90, 50..different numbers, but it seems it triggers even you type one cap character.

thanks again

@mm:

1) post backtrace of the error using .set errorInfo, but most likely you have played with x:mass:rate and set it incorrectly
2) I don't intend to add percentage analysys of used colors, it seems like overkill to me; what I will probably do is add setting to differentiate between using colors and using other control chars (bold, underline, reverse)
3) I will add configure setting for spam URLs and, on the other hand, for spamming with alien irc servers and channel invitations
4) I didn't experience this, we'll have to wait for someone else to confirm that behaviour
