Bots and scripts in #eoff

3) No caps flood kick, no punctuation flood kick. If someone is going to be an arse then we can kick them ourselves or we can ban them if they do it too often.
Yaaay. I don't really get kicked a whole lot, because I don't type in caps or use too much punctuation, but I'd really like it if shuten's banning thing for punctuation flood was turned off, because that's extremely annoying. Like other people have said, it doesn't help to discourage the behavior in any way.

Thos one wouldn't be so bad if there weren't so many welcome back scripts when people do get kicked. It gets overwhelming in chat to see a punctuation flood kick followed by a log in followed by a welcome back message.

The 4 lines per 4 seconds is a server kick, not a channel kick. BoB has no jurisdiction over that. Only the FFChat administrators do.

/mode +f #eoff 6:4

Seriously though, I usually shy away from #eoff because of the overkill of scripts and bots. The only 'welcome back' scripts that don't bug me are the ones you can set through Ragnarok. (and mine's been stuck for almost a year and I have no idea how to change it. >_>) In my opinion, getting kicked for doing your duties as an operator is asinine. Caps/punctuation doesn't really bother me unless it's in excess, and pointless triggers are fun for about five seconds.

[Samuraid]

Wow, I didn't know anyone else hated the annoying bans as much as I did.

(SPOILER)It's really all a evil plot by clout to take over EoFF

[eestlinc]

so does this mean Kishi can't come to chat anymore?

[escobert]

Yes.

[-N-]

4) No useless triggered scripts. I am happy to be the judge of what is useless and what is not once people start using them and will advise people of how it is useless by either chatting to them or kicking them repeatedly.
Aw, there's nothing wrong with !vin_diesel.

<3 Vin Diesel. If I could only trigger it myself...

I guess I can turn the kicks off in Mint again then, seeing as it's come and gone before, they're more for my amusement than for telling people not to caps/whatever And no, I can't combine Mint and Philia - one's mIRC, the other's Java, and I don't feel like hacking the piebot source code and getting mirc to interface with java so it no longer requires it's own connection for pie making.

Confeito: Experimental conversation bot. People weren't even supposed to know it's a bot. Anyway, you can ask me personally for more details on how it works. It has no true triggers, per se. Judgment: Who knows. It might start taking up too much RAM for me to keep it here.

I can always assimilate it into Mint if you want, I've got more RAM than you and less heavy-duty apps running on my PC

blah blah blah

1) No, because of Philia and Confeito

2) I can't do anything about the Raggy kicks. As for what's in my clients, yes it's buried amongst lots of scripts from when I wasn't very competent at scripting, and you know how lazy I am It's not like deopping Mint is an everyday thing anyway, so I won't bother touching that one I beleive there's nothing for mass op in both bots though, so I don't know what you're talking about

3) See top of post.

4) !ping, !pie, !stats, dictionary are useful Can't think of other triggers that are actually used at the moment, though I can add more if you want them I think Cbc's bot mirrored the !ping thing I've got, though that's probably a side effect of it also being a trivia bot for another channel. I don't think it makes sense for the other trivia functions/triggers to be enabled in #eoff though

5) Since I have 2 bots and 2 internet connections, that gives me an allowance of 4 clones

1) No, because of Philia and Confeito

Yeah, Philia is okay for the pie thing I suppose. Is there any way to not have your bots opped, though? I could always add a script so that when those names get opped, I de-op them. ?

The mass op thing looks to be taken care of. I think it might have been Hotaru, anyway, that did that.

3) See top of post.

Yay for lack of kicks. If I see Mint doing scripted kicks, I'm gonna de-op 'im again. If I don't de-op him anyway.

The one that bugs me the most is !spin. I like !ping, !pie, !stats, the translator ones, and if you could add !seen I'd love it. As far as I know, other scripts are all dumb and annoying. Oh, and I don't mind !time. I don't know how many people do that these days, though. If too many people have !time scripts then I suppose we could at least encourage them tomake them all notice the user instead of shoving it into the channel. If there are other scripts there are out there that I can't think of right now, let me know, but as far as I know that covers all the useful ones.

So long as your bots aren't opped then I have no problems with this. Lately I've usually only seen three of your names at most anyway so that's cool.

[crono_logical]

!spin was a temporary thing and is nothing to do with the other scripts/bots

And I want my bots opped so as soon as I get into chat, I can see if they're there or not so know if my PC's connection is alright or glitched and died or something else dodgy is going on with the connection and I have to fix something That doesn't harm anyone like the kick scripts do, so get over seeing them opped And you probably only saw 3 of me lately because I've been getting back from work late recently so probably been online on the dial-up connection while you were asleep

EDIT: Maybe I'll add !seen one day, but I've got other stuff to do too other than write more mirc scripts

I would also like to be opped as soon as I get into chat so I can see if my PC's connection is alright or glitched and died or something else dodgy is going on with the connection and I have to fix something. :chef:

[escobert]

Yeah same here I need to check that stuff all the time ya know.

[Chubbzilla]

The multi-deop kick was Raggy. I've disabled it.
I've also set BoB as a channel owner so he'll be able to deop whoever he wants without Raggy opping them again.
dn isn't allowed to op himself in the channel now, so that gets rid of his .
The flood kick limit (4 in 4 seconds) isn't set by server admins. It's set by ops, and it's totally up to them what they have it as. If BoB wants to keep it as 4 in 4, then you lot just have to learn to type longer sentences.

[rubah]

I personally like seeing a lot of names in chatxD and while having a lot of ops *is* overkill, it's sorta fun

Learn to avoid the 'Enter' or 'Return' key and just use the ". " as replacement.

But enter has a whole set of connotation that you can't convey with . ;_;;;; It's cramping mojo's style and taking away our freedom to connotate things in short fuijin-like bursts!

Since I can actually do this now, I don't want to see our clonage rights being taken away. I'm sad that fenny hasn't shown back up thoughX.x;; (wtp is the power going out up there or something?xD) But using two connections on one machine at one time is a bit of overkill. Like tabbing between them and using them both instead of one at a time. Now, if you have to physically walk a distance to be able to do it (where one pc is in one room and teh other is in another) I don't really see a problemxD

and triggered scripts can be fun, if used sparinglyX.x;; Dun outlaw them, please;
