# flood-nick 5:60
# Set here how many nick changes in how many seconds from one host
# constitutes a flood. Setting this to 0 or 0:0 disables nick flood
# protection for the channel.

^^from the eggdrop-config file....

that really just depends on what you, yourself, think is a nickchangeflood.

personally i find it annoying with 3 or more changes in a short period of time.

3:30 suits my temper very well

Probably about time I put this script up on the My Scripts page.

Awesome slenny. Now only if you show your ass on IRC and 'hiiiiiii' sometimes, you know where.

Thanks for the script slennox!.....and my idea of a nick change flooder is the lamers that change nicks like 3 and 4 times as soon as they join the channel or people who do it 2-3 times in like under 10 seconds.

Also I found that flood bots are keen to changing nicks often when joining and parting channels.

I have come to the conclusion that enough is enough with the nick changing.

I need a beer!!

thanks peeps,
