BadBoy: An extremely minimal spam blocker & reporter

[funkydude]

When reporting spam please post entire lines

BadBoy - Having been quite happy to remove my spam addon after 2.1 I've been struggling to resist the urge to use one once again. I've slowly been getting annoyed with the increase in spam again, being a hater of only blocking spam and a heavy supporter of 'report the bastards' this addon will auto report as well as block.

BadBoy will actively scan your chat for possible spam, when found:

• Block, all spam that is found from appearing
• Report, the spamming player automatically

What sets this aside from other spam blockers?

BadBoy is made to be extremely light, simple, has no ingame options, and works automatically without asking the user.

But what if I want to know who I'm reporting and what they spammed?
Sure, ingame EXACTLY type

/script BADBOY_POPUP = true

Now every time spam is blocked a popup will appear asking you to report the spammer. Use false to go back to automatic


Can I turn off the reported message?
Sure, ingame EXACTLY type:

/script BADBOY_SILENT = true

Now reported messages will not be shown. Use false to show them again.


Can I block level 1 whispers?
BadBoy_Levels was written for this function.

Can I filter anal/rectum/etc spam?
BadBoy_CCleaner was written for this function.


Please post missed spam here

I've changed the addon to auto reporting so people can afk in peace whilst reporting

Idling in peace in Org:

I'm not sure what you mean by ''- Slight throttle increase'' in the latest release, but i noticed some weird castlag/chatlag when i tested for 5-10 minutes. I'm not blaming it on this addon though, really like the autoreporting feature.

[funkydude]

Um, the throttle is the time between the first message and last message where a report is sent, this is to prevent you reporting the same guy 10 times because he spammed 10 times. The throttle was increased to 7 seconds. i.e. 1 report every 7 seconds.

Yeah it has nothing to do with casting.

Perhaps you could make it possible to add words to the blacklist from in game?

If not, I'd appreciate if you would add '<>' to the spamlist, as they've been spamming a lot on dragonmaw-eu.

Nah, I want to keep it simple, feel free to post here if it misses something. I added that to the blacklist.

Thanks, much appreciated.
