| Summary | 0004149: [Feature Request:] New (better?) mechanism to combat part/quit reason flood | ||||
| Description | As of now, channel ops and ircops have no direct way of combating part/quit reason flood without modifying the config file. I would like to suggest unrealircd to implement a channel mode (or anything more efficient) that allows ircops and channel ops to, at any time, replace part/quit reason with the static part/quit reason set in the config file. Currently (as available in the official documentation) the part/quit reason is handled separately in the config (set::anti-spam-quit-message-time, set::static-quit and set::static-part) Take note that flood, including part/quit reason flood can happen at any time. I find it unreasonable to leave the part/quit reason as a static message because of the probability of people misusing it. This feature request is closely related to 0004006 but with different suggestions. | ||||

1> there is no such thing as a "quit reason flood". 2> There is such a thing as join/part flood and it is controlled via existing channel modes. 3> There is connection throttling already built in. 4> As mentioned, parts/quits do not need to be handled on the fly. 5> Bug 4006 is a anti-spam enhancement by disallowing user defined messages from unidentified users (umode -r), not a way to micromanage whom can display quit/part messages. |

Sorry, but using a channel mode just for the sake of not displaying (original) quit reasons is really a waste IMO. This won't be a core feature, but feel free to make a 3rd party module and submit to modules.unrealircd.org |
