From eggdrop.conf:

channel set #channel +/-dynamicbans

# dynamicbans
# Only activate bans on the channel when necessary? This keeps
# the channel's ban list from getting excessively long. The bot
# still remembers every ban, but it only activates a ban on the
# channel when it sees someone join who matches that ban.

Thanks Alchera, well it's set to +dynamicbans, and bot was working fine past 6 months and that happened just for few minutes and now bot is working fine, i am wondering what could be the problem in those few mintues when bot had set the ban and then had removed the ban right away.

thanks

Might be because the channel banlist was full at the time ?

the only other time I heared about the bot kicking "not banned" users was here:

But your discription doesn't seem to be related with that.

Yes! If exempts (if any) are included.

Code: Select all

.chanset #channel +dynamicexempts

the banlist might not of been full... but the bot simply thought it was.. check max-bans and max-modes in conf
