The problem is that now CraftIRC has 3,000 messages backlogged and it'll faithfully spit them out at your configured rate-limit delay until it's caught up, making IRC totally unusable until it either runs out of messages after a half hour or somebody reloads the whole server.\r\n\r\nI think the solutions to this would be one of:\r\n\r\n- Detect duplicate messages in the queue and don't send them (configurable option maybe)\r\n- Allow a way for mods/admins to clear out the queue completely\r\n\r\n","number":32,"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/Animosity/CraftIRC/issues/32","comments":3,"assignee":null},"comment":{"created_at":"2011-12-29T20:47:57Z","user":{"login":"rakiru","id":569238,"url":"https://api.github.com/users/rakiru","avatar_url":"https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/3439769625edb6253414e9dc7b590de7?d=https://a248.e.akamai.net/assets.github.com%2Fimages%2Fgravatars%2Fgravatar-140.png","gravatar_id":"3439769625edb6253414e9dc7b590de7"},"updated_at":"2011-12-29T20:47:57Z","id":3305034,"body":"My point is that is is the job of another plugin to block spam in the first place, rather than have all other chat plugins have to implement a spam blocker too.\r\n\r\nI am the maintainer or antiSpam, and as far as I know, it works with MCBans 3.6, and CraftIRC (our servers use these three plugins).
