Happy New Years + Billing Day up_the_irons: Happy Invoice Day! it's a new year as well btw, delayed voice + a moderated channel seems to kill that troll's spam it's been pretty heavy on freenode and other nets lately also claiming to be accepting donations for weechat development with nils's nick is there a common bot that does that? I've been fiddling with BryceBot over the last couple of days to write my own spam detection (for fun, like everything I do with BryceBot), but nothing yet. But I'm guessing you meant the auto-delayed-voicing. tbh, i'd like to see freenode have auto detection adn blocking of such conduct I think that's a pretty bad experience for people new to IRC. i'm guessing that multiple channels are done at once Somebody mentioned some spam bot detection thing somewhere else recently. yeah, i was on irc in the 90s... doesn't seem that out there to me :) back when you would join a chatroom.. and random people would asl you https://github.com/freenode/Sigyn -- this was mentioned in another channel that has been facing the spam. i like the auto-voicing idea, i wodner what up_the_irons thinks I still don't like it. Someone said to just /invite sigyn but I'm not sure how that would work. well i prefer it to invite only, and if it didn't alert everyone i wouldn't mind so much Let's see if that helps? but yeah it's the kind of thing that hurts normal people but we all idle, and are thus not normal :) oh! maybe it kicks them off freenode? Once a month we congratulate up_the_irons on invoice day! :D Yeah hopefully? if it's actualyl part of freenode I think it is. yeah it looked like that by the address Looking at the code it does seem that it kills spammers. hahah that's what i am doing too https://github.com/freenode/Sigyn/blob/master/plugin.py Heh yup. i like open source where you just get to look at the code rather than read about it That's a lot of long methods. Totally. doJoin might make breakfast -- haven't finished reading it yet. Interesting special case for Matrix. https://github.com/freenode/Sigyn/blob/master/plugin.py#L3170-L3175 - this is the important part? What do we think defconMode does? maybe the irc networks will battle each other one day I have a bug-out bag packed and ready for that day. Sigyn: lstmp Can we interact with this thing? Sigyn: lswords lstmp
