Looking for a Spam-Protection Script.

Post by ProXy »

Hi,

I found a lot of spam prot. scripts in the Archive, but wanted to know what`s the best one, and if there is also a script, that provides "noSense" functions, like Protection from blod, Caps, clolors and so on!

While we should not plug our own scripts, in this situation, there is only one way.

No!Spam

It will protect you from allmost all spam and it can't be defauted by color, bold, underline, reverse, bell or other control codes.

If it can, drop me a bell, and it will be in it.

There is one outstanding bug, which I have not had chance to test, yet it only seems to have been reported once.

Thx again!

I only have one problem left. I configured the tcl, and wanted to add the protection to my channel.

So after trying ".+spamchan #HTP is it successfully running on my chan.
But if a user repeats himself 10 times in 3 seconds, nothing happens...
The tcl created the chan-file but no spam-file. It never makes any actions to prevent join part msg floods!
I think the script doesn`t work because of allt he flags. I never know the meaning of the flags!

Code: Select all

# If the alleged spammer doesn't meet atleast this flag, ban them.
# (if o is given, anyone who has the +o flag on the bot won't be banned)
set spam-ignore-flag "m"
Is this a channelflag or i flag i have to give the user on th eggdrop. and also the other flags?

take a look there :)
every flag is explained

that flag, "m", is beeing matched up against what flags the user have. If he has "m" then he will not be affected by the spam-protection.

When i have a lot of neverseen people in my channel, that are also unknown by my eggdrop, which flags do they have? Should the script also work, when the eggdrop doesn`t know them?

Normally they don't have any flags at all.
I don't know about that script but I'm pretty sure it should work on everyone yes :wink: would be a bit useless if it didn't

If a user is unknown to eggdrop, they are classed as not having any flags.

Think of it like this. Does a user that eggdrop not know have the global +n (owner) flag access?


No!Spam is rather complex, but this is somthing you expect for it's ability and ability to enble/disable most things.

As such, you have to enable what types of spam you will be wanting to detect in the config file. Many people would be fooled by this, and think that once a channel is enabled, they are protected (this is solthing I will address). This is not true. These config setting's allow you to disable and discard these parts of the scripts, if they are not gonna be used, this both speeds the script up, but reduces memory in use while eggdrop is running.

Once you have added a channel for protection, you will need to add the PART protection flag to this channel.

AKA, you can enable different types of spam prtection for each channel.
