| Summary | 0003727: Spam filter error | ||||
| Description | I've noticed some random spam filter issues that need addressing (in due time lol) | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | For this "particular" string spamfilter la.gg | ||||
| Additional Information | - -Hub.coldfusions.net- [Spamfilter] Amy!I.He@<Ip.Masked.For.Client.Security>.ip.windstream.net matches filter '*la.gg*': [PRIVMSG #main: 'laughing'] [We apologize but this url has been used for offensive purposes.] - | ||||

I also want to point out that this isint the only string that does it, there are a few others i cannot rememeber at this moment, basically its reading *la.gg* which is a domain obviously, as laughing from laughing its getting lagg. but the spamfilter wasent set up to parse the whole word, it was at the time set to find a string like this: Whats up check out la.gg its a great site. |
|
|
I suggest you read up on how regex works. '.' in regex means any character. '*' in regex means zero or more of the previous character. Therefore, the regex pattern '*la.gg*' will match 'laugh'. Regex is not glob. |
|
|
That having been said, the ability to use glob matching filters instead of using regex all the time is one very useful idea which U3.3 should steal from inspircd. It's useful to newcomers. |
|
|
You know what, sadly i should know that it uses regex, Its just one of thoes days for me, but yes there u go there should be a FLAG stating that your using a regex match i suppose so problem solved. lol. |
|
|
a 'Flag' to denote its regex? Anyone who either reads the /helpop info for it or the documentation itself (which should be obviously done before running Unreal) would know its regex. :P |
