getuser : fails when nickchange [Solved]

Post by Wannabe »

Hey guys,

ive written a quick script that punishes people for swearing in my channel, i have a points system, by adding the user with there $hand, and then setting xtra info to a punishment level.

However, they can avoid this entirely by changing there nickname, is there anything i can do, so that getuser will use there hostname?


Cheers

Syn

I'm sure it is possible to change the script to use the hosts.

You're using the user's nickname as his handle. Instead, add his user@host to a handle and use [nick2hand] or [finduser] to get his handle.
