#1  Bots and scripts in #eoff What are we going to do about them? Because seriously, I hate 90% of the things that they do. I don't mind Raggy. But I don't like the caps and punctuation floods. I don't like welcome back scripts but they're seemingly harmless so whatever. I don't see the point in having one person having five names in a chatroom, let alone two or three. Okay, two is acceptable if they're logging in from school while the other PC is on at hom 24/7, or something. These are my (currently) proposed changes... 1) No bots aside from Raggy and Mint. Mint can be used for his translator crap etc. 2) No "Don't do that" rule where if you kick someone, you get kicked. Same for de-opping. If I want to de-op three people in one go, I don't want to get kicked. If I want to op three people, I don't want to get kicked. This should at least apply to all the aops in the room. 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. 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. 5) Only one second name (Mint and Raggy don't count as clones as they are bots) per user at most. Not from the same PC, please. That's just silly. Am I missing anything? EDIT: Upon further consideration of point #3, I think it would be reasonable to keep a caps flood on, if possible, for multiple lines that are in caps but not just one line. I say that because I know certain people *cough* tend to have a rather high amount of lines that are all caps. Resha had a sticky shift button - she wrote 1831 lines in CAPS. ;( EDIT: If someone can make sure all of the following see this thread, that would be great: clout, Roogle, Proto, 'xoden, Kat, Snizz. Any other chatters are also free to join in but it would be nice if the aops at least were specifically notified.  *isn't at home so can't chat*EDIT: I'm bored I'm bored I'm bored more people need to reply to this thread come on already  |

 | 1) Agree. 2) The "Don't do that" is Mint's, so you need to tell clout to get rid of it. The multiple de-op thing is built in to Raggy, I can attempt to switch it off if you want me to. If it's not the Raggy one you're complaining about, I'm guessing its another of dn's  ty things.3) You need to speak to dn and ask him to remove them then. In my opinion you need to ask him to not op himself in the channel anyway. I don't op myself in channels I shouldn't, and neither should he. 4) Dunno about this one, I find some of them amusing, but then if you want rid of them then it's up to you and the other ops. 5) Clones are smurfing annoying, especially when they pretend to be 2 different people and have retarded conversations. I know I have 2 clients connected, but I have it that way for a valid reason. People who have more than 1 for s and giggles are annoying.End of the day BoB, it's essentially your chat, so you need to tell people to turn stuff off it you don't want it there. |

| Administrator | You're assuming people will actually listen to me instead of just making fun of me or just typing something like "maybe ". And it's not really my chat - it's co-run by clout, Roogle and I. But hopefully I can bug them enough with more people saying "yeah". |

| | If you decide to make changes, and people just make fun of you, then you need to kick them out. In all seriousness, you're way too soft about stuff like this. Put your foot down for once. If you need help in laying down the law, then I'll be around for backup. T'is my job after all. |
