Antispam

From xat wiki
(Redirected from AntiFlood)

xat has introduced a new anti-spam system which aims to detect and block spam in main chat, private chats and private messages.

How it works

By default, members and any rank higher than that are allowed to send 4 messages in a row. Messages after that will be analyzed and if detected as spam, they will be blocked for a few seconds.

By default guests are allowed to send up to 50 characters before the filter kicks in, and then if the message is detected as spam they may also be blocked for a few seconds. If you are blocked by the filter, it means your last message was not sent and you cannot send any new messages until the time stated is over.

Adjusting the values

The values can be adjusted via Gcontrol power. Changing the values will only affect the main chat of the chat you are currently on.

Spam clicking

If you are spam clicking a user who has Tickle power, you will also be blocked for a certain number of seconds. If you continue clicking, the time that you're blocked for will increase. This also affects sending messages via private chat/private message to the user; so if you are spam clicking them, you will not be able to send them messages.
