floods

Post by TTownClark »

i run a triviabot from an eggie, and it will at times kick a user for flooding during some questions when the user repeatedly guesses something like a date (i.e 1940, 1941, 1942...etc)

what i wanna know is: how can i shutdown flood protection, and stop this?

i have tried uping the flood-chan settings to 300:60 or 0:0 , but this continues to happen.

would love to hear some suggestions...thanks :D

If you have disabled the builtin flood-chan with 0:0 then check if you don't have an tcl script that is doing the kicks.
Once the game is over, the king and the pawn go back in the same box.

Once the eggdrop had made for the first time the channels file (the place where he stores the informations about channel(s) as modes, flags, etc.) it won't read again from the .conf file what settings are there (at least this should not happen untill you make it .reset or something). This applies for the static channels, so, basicaly you need to be shure you have used corectly .chanset #yourchannel flood-chan 0:0 and do a .chansave after that to be shure this information is saved in the channels file.

thank you all for your response...I have used the .chanset command for all channels and bots, and as so far, have seen no more kicks....I think this has done the trick. Me and my channel users thank you all very much

I would like to recommend that you enable flood protection on at least one eggdrop in your channel, possibly using slennox's sentinel.tcl. Having all bots set to 0:0 could make you a target to a malicious person.
