[Addon] ChatSanitizer - An answer to gold spamming

Recommended Posts

Hi, i have made a very small addon that filters out gold spam advertising. It should block about 99% of the currently used goldspam. I also plan to adjust this in the future if the goldspammers adjust their advertising.

How it works: It ranks certain words and if a message passes the limit it will be dropped.

Also be aware that i have to support every whisper addon manually. Currently supported are: The default chat window, WIM and FuBar_WhisperFu.

My mistake, for some reason the addon wasn't even enabled after removing the -master from the file, but rather i had to add two "!!" at the start of the file for it to show in the addons section.

 

this is for the latest release of 1.01, whereas 1.00 has the two "!!" added already

Well the releases have it and work outright after unpacking. The folder alwas has to have the same name as the *.toc file in it. The "!!" make sure it gets loaded before other addons.

my addon knowledge is very limited, but all i know is that it wasn't working after removing the -master but it was fine as soon as i added the two !! to the folder name manually :p

Also, can you hide the server message telling you to change your passorwd every 5min, even right after i changed it ingame (just in hope it make it stop spamming me) ?

Rhena, Thanks for making this.. I'll have to give it a try. One of the biggest problems with SpamThrottle is that it blocks a lot of legitimate messages, even from people on your friends list. Do you anticipate this addon having the same issue, and if so, is there a setting we can use to see what messages have been filtered? (i.e. "color messages rather than hiding")

This is pretty much still a work in progress. I am making sure everything that gets posted here gets detected. Also i am planing on a simple method (FuBar plugin maybe) to show the last 10 blocked messages and maybe provide some statistics.

Right now, just after a fresh download of the addon.

Edit : oh wait... the addon folder should be renamed with "!!" to match the .toc file.

 

But still, after the rename :

How about you being rude somewhere else?

 

Anyway, i added a fubar plugin that will show the last 10 blocked messages. And i adjusted the filters so they will catch the stuff that has been reported.

You should add a regex that keep only [a-z] [A-Z] [0-9] because they're hiding their sh!t behind all kinds of symbols most of the time ;)

great addon, looking forward to see prat support !

Using the addon without FuBar enabled gives me the following error. Enabling it causes the addon to work properly.
